lyrics

In the middle of a field
Far away in the shade where I lay
Holding on to all I can with my hands
I collapse and begin to shake
Being pulled towards the sky
By a large, white, bright, intergalactic light
And I think I found a doorway
Into another world
I want to touch it
I want to put my finger through
The light that burns around it
The field, it grabs a hold of you
The sound that’s coming from it
The noises dancing in your head
The warmth of love within it
She grabs my hand and pulls me through
Here we lie in the land of love
The beauty runs through me
With happiness from above
And the river is running
And the sky full of birds
In the spring time resurrection
From the deadly lonely-hearted winter curse
The mass parading time bomb lunar ticks
They gently make their way across your finger tips
And I thought I found a doorway into another world
Yeah, I traveled through the portal and found myself alone
All alone
