Oh, look at the view Look at the people running, They've so much to do Better than you Better than take what's coming, Nothing's ever new
And everything that looks so good from here Living out a dream I've had for a year Living out a dream I've had
Oh, the avenue They're taking the trees down, And they're asking me and you What can we do? We can stand in a circle, Paying tribute with paper and glue
And everything that looks so good from here Living out a dream I've had for a year Living out a dream I've had
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
Oh, hidden from view The place that we keep from, How I miss those elegant lines And the sun on the blinds They beckon me down here, From what I know now are sunnier climbs
And everything that looks so good from here Living out a dream I've had for a year Living out a dream I've had
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
I never knew that I had been here before They're running through houses, And breaking down doors No matter where you go, They'll follow you, follow you, follow you
I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever as
