Lyrics

Get the idea, cross around the track When you reap the flank of a thoroughbred racing chaser Get the feel as the rhythm flows Would you like to go and shoot the mountain masses And here you stand no taller than the grass seas And should you really chase so hard The truth of sport plays rings around you Going for the one Going for the one Get in the way as the tons of water Racing with you crash into the rudders Once at the start can you gamble that You really surely really mean to finish After seeing all your sense of fear diminish As you treat danger as pure collection As you throw away misconception Going for the one Going for the one Going for a listen in time Taken so high To touch, to move Listen to life Touching, touch time Travel, twilight Taken so high Roundabout, sounding out Love me so Now the verses I've sang don't add much weight to the story in my head So I'm thinking I should go and write a punchline But they're so hard to find in my cosmic mind So I think I'll take a look out of the window When I think about you, I don't feel low Should I really chase so hard The truth of sport plays rings around you Going for the one Going for the one Going for to listen in time Taken so high To touch, to move Listen to life Touching, touch time Travel, twilight Taken so high Taking your time Turn on to love Turnstile to one Tender timing Rocking, rolling Listen in time Taken so high To touch, to move Listen to life Touching, touch time Travel, twilight Taken so high Taking your time Turn on to love Turnstile to one Tender timing Rocking, rolling Turn on to love Turnstile to one Tender timing Rocking, rolling Moments decide Moments delight Moments in flight Talk about sending love Love... Love... Love... Love
