waiting on the honey hill-tops for the evening sky to fall
to catch the cheshire moon before it dissolves into the sun
a sudden wind blows and send me off the frowning face of the earth
and hurls me to the stars a-floatin' flyin' off a kite of birds
the colors of the ocean sky melt on my eyelids all around
and I unfold the curling edge of the parchment and claim this crown
and it rolls out like a magic carpet reeling out the dust of years before
and I strike the gong with a pastel brush dispatching endless love to every soul
and I wait for a love that is rightful
to show me all the beauty there’s to see
a love I know my heart would die for
but still I am a lonesome as can be
I gather weeping stars and planets and watch thirty sunsets every day
I water a lonely rose and watch its petals call for an embrace
my tears add to the morning dew my sighs rise up to mist the clouds
and the pretty rose beats in my chest and the music wraps around us like a shroud
and just as the stars had planned it
the volcanoes erupt as we run
to the other side of the planet
to climb a rainbow and be swallowed by the sun
the moon tips with silver all the rooftops in the sour streets
where rich men glide on diamond rugs and poor men crawl on crystal dreams
and like broken bits of sparkle the laughing stars shiver in the sky
and it rains down confetti on the land of tears as shadows walk on by
