Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let's get away, you say, find a better place
Miles and miles away from the city's race
Look around for someone lying in the sunshine
Marking time, hear the sighs, close your eyes
Ba-da-pa-do-da
Da-da-pa-do-da
[Verse 2]
Stepping from cloud to cloud, passing in their flight
Visit the frosty start in the back wood flight
Star becomes a vision, never mind the meaning
Hidden there, moving fast, it won't last
Da-da-pa-do-da
Da-da-pa-do-da
[Verse 3]
Time passes all too soon, how it rushes by
Now a thousand moons are about to die
No time to reflect on what the time was spent on
Nothing left, far away, dreamers fade
Ba-da-pa-do-da
Da-da-pa-do-da
[Verse 4]
Strange visions pass me by
Winging swiftly as I sigh
Over the water, ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 5]
Swirling, the waters rise up above my head
Gone are the curling mists, how they all have fled
Look the door is open, step into the space provided there
Da-do-da
Da-do-da
Ba-da-pa-do-da
Da-da-pa-do-da
