[00:07.68] | --Great Big Wall in China-- |
[00:30.36] | You can tell a flower to bloom |
[00:48.86] | On the other side of the moon |
[00:51.16] | But for you and me it's hard to see her glory in the sun |
[00:58.62] | Even if she climbs high into an ashen sky |
[01:06.84] | A fading light for out of sight |
[01:12.92] | will signal her blooming day |
[01:27.38] | |
[01:27.62] | So a spaceship we must build |
[01:32.00] | Set off from our window sill |
[01:40.98] | The journey's long to carry on, especially in the dark |
[01:51.09] | Even if we ask a distant star where the blooming flowers are |
[01:59.55] | She may shoot us back on her jumbled ray |
[02:08.01] | To the land from whence we came |
[02:09.37] | But from space we'll see |
[02:13.55] | |
[02:13.70] | They built a great big wall in China |
[02:16.84] | Built it up to the pearly gates |
[02:20.09] | I wanna land right beside her |
[02:24.37] | Hither come what may |
[02:59.21] | The storyteller stands |
[03:04.85] | Upon the city gate and says, |
[03:06.14] | “I too have seen a coming dream |
[03:13.97] | I talked to stars |
[03:18.85] | Got close to mars, and |
[03:24.38] | Got shot back to where we are |
[03:34.89] | I wish all could see what I have seen |
[03:48.15] | The trembling light of a distant flower in the night” |

[04:17.49][04:02.79] | Gotta take down the banner boys |
[04:21.49][04:09.68] | Hope it's not too late |
