The Consequences Of Learning How To Fly
The only sound our voices, as star-struck we fly
Our hopes ever high
That the songs we sing and the words we bring
Should never die
We set our sights on the Sea of all Tranquility
Our pointless flight betraying now fallen we are
(Gods of old now broken and defaced)
Compared to a star
And the final reach to that barren beach
Is much too far
Yesterday our songs of glory shone
A dream of ages every one
We sold our souls for senseless gain
And brought our harvest home in vain
(Above the seven seas is one
Walk In The Sun
Hmmm - one day we'll walk in the sun
My name is Vernon James and I live to the south of town
I work my window watching the women go round and round
Some people come here for love
Some people come for fantasy
When two in the morning comes around
My baby comes around for me
Someone come, come my someone
Take the clouds from my eyes, my one
I know that, that sometime soon
One day we'll walk in the sun
I'm taking tickets and watching
the men always looking down
Sometimes I feel like an animal in
the zoo staring out
No one looks me in the eye
They save it for the girls inside
I don't much care what they see
I know she saves it all for me
Someone come, come my someone
Take the clouds from my eyes, my one
I know that, and sometime soon
One day we'll walk in the sun
Some people come here for love
Some come for curiosity
I know there will be a day
I know we'll figure out a way
Someone come, come my someone
Take the clouds from my eyes, my one
I know that sometime soon
One day we'll walk in the sun
Someone come, come my someone
Take the clouds from my eyes, my one
I know that sometime soon
One day we'll walk in the sun
One day we'll walk in the sun (repeat)
