[00:19.21] | I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes |
[00:27.87] | All the sights that I have seen |
[00:33.48] | |
[00:37.32] | I can't believe that I believed I wished |
[00:42.89] | That you could see |
[00:45.45] | There's a new planet in the solar system |
[00:49.84] | There is nothing up my sleeve |
[00:54.36] | I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs |
[00:59.28] | I'm tossing up punchlines that were never there |
[01:03.63] | Over my shoulder a piano falls |
[01:07.61] | Crashing to the ground |
[01:12.88] | And all this talk of time |
[01:16.39] | Talk is fine |
[01:20.78] | And I don't want to stay around |
[01:30.51] | Why can't we pantomime, just close our eyes |
[01:36.60] | And sleep sweet dreams |
[01:39.01] | Me and you with wings on our feet |
[01:45.17] | |
[01:48.33] | I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs |
[01:52.47] | I'm tossing up punchlines that were never there |
[01:56.78] | Over my shoulder a piano falls |
[02:00.65] | Crashing to the ground |
[02:02.51] | |
[02:05.45] | I'm breaking through |
[02:07.88] | I'm bending spoons |
[02:09.70] | I'm keeping flowers in full bloom |
[02:13.96] | I'm looking for answers from the great beyond |
[02:19.87] | |
[02:38.49] | I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears |
[02:44.04] | Sweetest dreams of you |
[02:48.43] | Look into the stars |
[02:52.69] | Look into the moon |
[02:56.74] | |
[02:57.73] | I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs |
[03:01.95] | I'm tossing up punchlines that were never there |
[03:06.30] | Over my shoulder a piano falls |
[03:10.20] | Crashing to the ground |
[03:15.08] | I'm breaking through |
