about

me alone

lyrics

when i look up at the sky at night
the stars are bright
are bright
and on the dark street William beat beat beats
a drum of dark and deep sleep
ch
children dreaming in there deep sleep
monkey laughs, and clown is weeping
yellow bird
children singing ..la la la

when i'm walking on strange roads
i talk with children
and i'm not so lonely
bring me water and bring me fire
the stars will soon be bright
be bright
ch
children dreaming in there deep sleep
monkey laughs, and clown is weeping
yellow bird
children singing ..la la la

oh children, what do you know
of the shark that bites
and the flowers that grow
oh William beat your drum tonight
i'll cry like a clown
and laugh like a child
ch
children dreaming in there deep sleep
monkey laughs, and clown is weeping
yellow bird
children singing ..la la la
