lyrics

who rules the Winter sky
in my day dreams gulls flies
time tables and train stations
boys on bikes toss news papers
time flies in my day dreams
spoons cry whenever i meet
tuff guys ……tuff guys

who goes into a dark zone
why walk through a ghost town
hawks cry whenever light comes
crows fly out of the snow storm
cartwheels and play ground preachers
play tunes about lost lovers
long ago ….so long ago

water runs upstream
and the movie runs backwards
in the day i dream
im a rusty nightingale
falls in love falls in love
with the impossible
runs away with a prince
who plays harmonica
water runs upstream
and the movie runs backwards
waterfalls can’t reach
the top of the mountain
when the wold is green
there are cows in the pasture
as the nightingale sings
the movie runs backwards
da da da da da da
