作曲 : Driessen, Fleck, Sollee ... | |
You can tell a flower to bloom | |
On the other side of the moon | |
But for you and me it's hard to see her glory in the sun | |
Even if she climbs high into an ashen sky | |
A fading light for out of sight | |
will signal her blooming day | |
So a spaceship we must build | |
Set off from our window sill | |
The journey's long to carry on, especially in the dark | |
Even if we ask a distant star where the blooming flowers are | |
She may shoot us back on her jumbled ray | |
To the land from whence we came | |
But from space we'll see | |
They built a great big wall in China | |
Built it up to the pearly gates | |
I wanna land right beside her | |
Hither come what may | |
The storyteller stands | |
Upon the city gate and says, | |
“I too have seen a coming dream | |
I talked to stars | |
Got close to mars, and | |
Got shot back to where we are | |
I wish all could see what I have seen | |
The trembling light of a distant flower in the night” | |
They built a great big wall in China | |
Built it up to the pearly gates | |
Gotta take down the banner boys | |
Hope it's not too late |
