|
look around
|
this is the landscape that we`re in
|
there is the house we`ve built
|
and there`s our yellow dustbin
|
and just behind those trees
|
you can see the little barn
|
we used to jump into the hay
|
like we were diving in the ocean
|
|
walk through the garden now
|
and smell them herbs and spices
|
go strolling up that hill
|
to where the rotting stake is
|
you are looking down on me
|
and i am looking up to you
|
think again
|
now think again
|
about what you want do
|
|
all the promises you make i cannot keep
|
all the dreams you bring about are far too deep
|
and one more thing to make this misery complete
|
i wanna know
|
cause i don`t know
|
just why you want to go
|
|
look around
|
this is the landscape that we`re in
|
gracefully surging fields
|
a thunderbolt enlightening
|
the narrow path we used to walk
|
as if we`d sail the seven seas
|
to hide away and booze and fuck
|
like sailors out on shore-leave
|
|
all the promises you make i cannot keep
|
all the dreams you bring about are far too deep
|
and one more thing to make this misery complete:
|
it seems you played the game
|
just a little smarter
|
and while my brittle raft will sink
|
you go walking on the water
|
|
look around
|
this is the landscape that we`re in
|
the lake the trees the birds and bees
|
and everything`s revolving
|
the clouds between the sky and i
|
slowly drift apart
|
the rain will wash away the tears
|
and soothe your aching heart
|
|
all the promises you make i cannot keep
|
all the dreams you bring about are far too deep
|
and one more thing...
|
