Once was a time when
nothing was moving this fast,
when life was an rolling field and
we were the dew in the grass.
Heaven was open
meteors would fly!
If you tried you could see yourself there
with a naked eye.
Ahhh… Oooo
Ahh, don’t you remember?
Everything was so loud!
We were holding hands and running
headlong through the crowd.
When all their faces
began to look the same…
You were all that I needed and soon
we were all that remained.
Ahhh… Oooo
Chorus
But wasn’t it right?
Didn’t we know
when it was time
to break and go?
Taking chances,
moving feet!
Soon we were dancing in the
empty street,
and all our troubles were small!
Oooo…
Night was forever,
morning was late and slow.
Locusts were singing as
over and over we rolled!
The air was coffee and
oranges and traffic outside.
The window was open as time
was framing our lives.
Ahhh… Oooo
Everynight, everywhere,
everyone’s drawn to the light.
No one is wiser than nature,
now isn’t that right?
Just as the candle
can not fear the flame,
consumed in our glory back then
it’s there we remain.
Na, Na, Na, Na, Na… Oooo
Chorus
Sky is still open,
it just don’t look so clear.
Warm nights are colder now,
must be the time of the year.
Window is dirty and the
traffic is shaking the room.
The locusts are gone from the trees
all the leaves will be soon.
Ahhh… Oooo
