Then, they took me by the hand and through the ceiling we flew away
I was higher than I’d ever been and a little afraid
They said, “We have things to tell you, there are things you need to see;
Maybe help you open up your eyes, even set you free.
And the sun’s gonna’ be setting pretty soon and there’s such a long way to go
(Chorus)
I was looking at the sunlight bouncing off the moon
And the stars were shining bright in the middle of the night
I was dancing with my shadow on this wild and wondrous flight to somewhere
Then, they said, “The agnostic, dyslexic, insomniac lost in a fog lies awake at
night
just wondering if there really is a dog. Like so many answers to the things we’d
love to know we either learn them or we don’t, that’s just the way it goes
But, we keep on pushing; we keep trying to be correct. Sometimes we have
to change planes; sometimes the flight’s direct. But, at least, keep trying to
get
there, keep on doing the best you can. Sometimes we make it on our own;
sometimes we need a helping hand. Especially, when the sun’s gonna’ be setting
pretty soon and there’s such a long way to go”.
The next time I woke up it was the crack of noon and I realized I’d been
dreaming,
and it was over far too soon. But, every chance I get I try to go the extra mile
and
find a perfect stranger and at least, offer him a smile knowing the sun’s gonna’
be
setting pretty soon and there’s such a long way to go
(Chorus)
I was looking at the sunlight bouncing off the moon
And the stars were shining bright in the middle of the night
I was dancing with my shadow on this wild and wondrous flight to somewhere
Dancing with my shadow, dancing with my shadow
Dancing with my
shadow, dancing with my shadow
