It's 4 in the morning July of '69 Me & my sister We crept down like shadows They're bringing the moon right down to our sitting-room Static & silence & a monochrome vision
They're dancing around Slow puppets silver ground & the world was watching with joy We hear a voice from above & it's history & we stayed awake all night
& something is said and the whole room laughs aloud Me & my sister Looking on like shadows The end of an age as we watched them walk in a glow Lost in space, but I don't know where it is
They're dancing around Slow puppets silver ground & the stars & stripes in the sand We hear a voice from above & it's history & we stayed awake all night
They're dancing around It sends a shiver down my spine & I run to look in the sky and I half expect to hear them asking to come down (oh) Will they fly or will they fall? To be excited by a long late night
