I lay in the forest amongst the butterflies and the fireflies

And the burning horses and the flaming trees

As a spiral of children climb up to the sun, waving goodbye to you

And goodbye to me as the past pulls away and the future begins

I say goodbye to all that as the future rolls in, like a wave, like a wave

And the past with its savage undertow, let's go

Come on everyone, come on everyone

A spiral of children climbs up to the sun

To the sun, to the sun, and on each golden rung

A spiral of children climbs up to the sun

And a man called Jesus

He promised he would leave us with a word that would light up the night

Oh the night, but the stars hang from threads and blink off one by one

And it isn't any fun no it isn't any fun to be standing here alone with nowhere to be with a man mad with grief

And on each side a thief and everybody hanging from a tree

From a tree, and everybody hanging from a tree

Come on everyone, come on everyone

A spiral of children climbs up to the sun

To the sun, to the sun, taking everyone

A spiral of children climbs up to the sun

There is nothing more valuable than beauty, they say

There is nothing more valuable than love and I lie amongst the leaves

And the burning trees and the fields of smoke and the black butterflies

And the screaming horses and your bright green eyes so beautiful, your bright green eyes, so beautiful

I am here

Beside you

Look for me

In the sun

I am beside you

I am within

In the sunshine

In the sun
