The other day I saw the strangest thing
A crystal clear blue sky and the heavens rained
The people stared into sunshine
When it hit the ground it turned to wine
And I am woken to find I’m falling through the sky
My arms are open, trying to desperately to fly
I cannot hear you and you are looking in my eyes
But you don’t see me, only a stranger frozen mind
And in my sleep I heard the angels sing
They call to me. I answer from dreams.
The clock on the wall forgets to chime
When I open my eyes I travel time
Chorus
Fly far away, bird. Fly far from here.
Find another a tree on the top of a hill nowhere near
And sing your songs to the lonely man
I said I don’t want you bummin around here no more.
I said I don’t want you knocking down all my doors.
