(Clarke / Hicks / Nash)
|
Days of yellow saffron.
|
Nights with purple skies.
|
Melting in the sunbeams
|
From my maker's eyes.
|
|
Mountain-colored lilac
|
In the distant haze.
|
I would like to lie here,
|
Timing all my days
|
|
Move past my window,
|
Sunshine is shimmering
|
Jack-o-lanterns glimmering,
|
Giant moths are flickering around.
|
|
See, the moon is hiding
|
Underneath the sea.
|
Pretty soon he'll venture
|
To take a look at me.
|
|
So I humbly stand here
|
Beneath his golden glow.
|
Doesn't he remind me
|
Of somebody I know?
|
|
I must be leaving,
|
Back to reality.
|
Don't you just pity me?
|
I could so easily stay here.
