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've never tried 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 stop before I can stop |
|
Or 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 |
|
Or the inventors could never design |
|
The buildings that you put up |
|
Or 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 |
|
Oh, when you see it then you'll understand |
|
All those signs I knew what they meant |
|
Some things you can't 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 |
|
Oh, when you see it then you'll understand |
