Then, they took me by the hand and through the ceiling we flew awayI 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 shadowDancing with my 
shadow, dancing with my shadow
