How long before I get in? |
|
Before it starts, before I begin? |
|
How long before you decide? |
|
Before I know what it feels like? |
|
Where To, where do I go? |
|
If you never try, then you'll never know. |
|
How long do I have to climb, |
|
Up on the side of this mountain of mine? |
|
Look up, I look up at night, |
|
Planets are moving at the speed of light. |
|
Climb up, up in the trees, |
|
every chance that you get, |
|
is a chance you seize. |
|
How long am I gonna stand, |
|
with my head stuck under the sand? |
|
I'll start before I can stop, |
|
before I see things the right way up. |
|
All that noise, and all that sound, |
|
All those places I got found. |
|
And birds go flying at the speed of sound, |
|
to show you how it all began. |
|
Birds came flying from the underground, |
|
if you could see it then you'd understand? |
|
Ideas that you'll never find, |
|
All the inventors could never design. |
|
The buildings that you put up, |
|
Japan and China all lit up. |
|
The sign that I couldn't read, |
|
or a light that I couldn't see, |
|
some things you have to believe, |
|
but others are puzzles, puzzling me. |
|
All that noise, and all that sound, |
|
All those places I got found. |
|
And birds go flying at the speed of sound, |
|
to show you how it all began. |
|
Birds came flying from the underground, |
|
if you could see it then you'd understand, |
|
ah when you see it then you'll understand? |
|
All those signs, I knew what they meant. |
|
Some things you can invent. |
|
Some get made, and some get sent, |
|
Ooh~ |
|
Birds go flying at the speed of sound, |
|
to show you how it all began. |
|
Birds came flying from the underground, |
|
if you could see it then you'd understand, |
|
ah, when you see it then you'll understand? |
