|
Full of waves and fields |
|
This universe we glide on in misshapen vessels |
|
Afraid of the spray |
|
Just beyond the glass |
|
Fear the scrape of rocks |
|
Just off the path |
|
Just beyond the wall |
|
This route of carved tunnels |
|
To be floating there alone in the water |
|
Would be to be in space alone |
|
Embedded in the stone of the mountain |
|
As in amber |
|
To wrap your arms around the boulder |
|
Because it is the only thing |
|
And the wisest thing around |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down, down, down |
|
[extra lyrics added in live version] |
|
You said you were a traveler |
|
You said you were the wind |
|
You said you were the first one on the moon |
|
That was only the beginning |
|
You said that you had snuck well past this galaxy |
|
By the time the sun had drawn on our faces |
|
Some bronze image |
|
But I say hey |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down, down, down |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
|
Lay your cheek on down |
