Chalkhills And Children |
I’m floating over strange land |
It’s a soulless, sequined, showbiz moon |
I’m floating over strange land |
And then stranger still, there’s no balloon |
But I’m getting higher |
Wafted up by fame’s fickle fire 'til the |
Chalk hills and children |
Anchor my feet |
Chalk hills and children |
Bringing me back to earth |
Eternally and ever Ermine Street |
(Even I never know where I go when my eyes are closed) |
I’m skating over thin ice |
Upon blunted blades of metal soft |
I’m skating over thin ice |
While some none such net holds me aloft |
But I’m getting higher |
Lifted up on lucks' circus wire 'til the |
Chalk hills and children |
Anchor my feet |
Chalk hills and children |
Bringing me back to earth |
Eternally and ever Ermine Street |
Even I never know where I go when my eyes are closed |
Even I never spied that the scenes were posed |
Even I never knew this is what I’d be |
Even eyes never mean that you’re sure to see |
Still I’m getting higher |
Rolling up on three empty tyres, 'til the |
Chalk hills and children |
Anchor my feet |
Chalk hills and children |
Bringing me back to earth |
Eternally and ever Ermine Street |
I’m soaring over hushed crowds |
The reluctant cannonball it seems |
I’m soaring over hushed crowds |
I’m propelled up here by long dead dreams |
Still I’m getting higher |
Icarus regrets and retires puzzled |
Chalk hills and children |
Anchor my feet |
Chalk hills and children |
Oddly complete |
(Even I never know where I go when my eyes are all closed) |
Here I go again |
