| Dear, | |
| How are things in your little world, i hope they're going well and you are too. | |
| Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who used to meet every friday. | |
| I'm really sorry that i can't be there but work comes first, i'm sure you'll understand. | |
| Things are really taking off for me business is thriving and i'm showing a profit and. | |
| And in any case it wouldn't be the same, 'cause we've all grown up and we've got our lives | |
| And the values that we had once upon a time, seem stupid now 'cause the rent must be paid | |
| And some bonds severed and others made. | |
| Now i don't want you to get me wrong, ideals are fine when you are young and i must admit | |
| We had a laugh, but that's all it was and ever will be, 'cause the burning sky keeps | |
| Burning bright. and as long as it does (and it always will), there's no time for dreams | |
| When commerce calls. and the taxman's shouting 'cause he wants his dough and the wheels of | |
| Finance won't begin to slow. | |
| And it's only us realists who are gonna come through 'cause there's only one power higher | |
| Than that of truth and that's the burning sky. | |
| Oh and by the way i must tell you, before i sign off, that i've got a meeting next week, | |
| With the head of a big corporate i can't disclose who but i'm sure you'll know it and. | |
| And the burning sky - keeps burning bright. and it won't turn off til it's had enough, | |
| It's the greedy bastard who won't give up, and you're just a dreamer if you don't realize, | |
| And the sooner you do will be the better for you, then we'll all be happy and we'll all be | |
| Wise and all bow down to the burning sky. | |
| Then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise and together we will live beneath the | |
| Burning sky. |
