Oh, look at the view
|
Look at the people running, They've so much to do
|
Better than you
|
Better than take what's coming, Nothing's ever new
|
|
And everything that looks so good from here
|
Living out a dream I've had for a year
|
Living out a dream I've had
|
|
Oh, the avenue
|
They're taking the trees down, And they're asking me and you
|
What can we do?
|
We can stand in a circle, Paying tribute with paper and glue
|
|
And everything that looks so good from here
|
Living out a dream I've had for a year
|
Living out a dream I've had
|
|
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
|
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
|
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
|
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
|
|
Oh, hidden from view
|
The place that we keep from, How I miss those elegant lines
|
And the sun on the blinds
|
They beckon me down here, From what I know now are sunnier climbs
|
|
And everything that looks so good from here
|
Living out a dream I've had for a year
|
Living out a dream I've had
|
|
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
|
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
|
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
|
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
|
|
I never knew that I had been here before
|
They're running through houses, And breaking down doors
|
No matter where you go, They'll follow you, follow you, follow you
|
|
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
|
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
|
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
|
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
|
