When the evil of a snowflake in June Could still be a source of relief. O how I love you, I once cried long ago, But I was the one who decided to go. To search beyond the final crest, Though I'd heard it said just birds could dwell so high. So I pretended to have wings for my arms And took off in the air. I flew to places which the clouds never see, Too close to the deserts of sand, Where a thousend mirages, the shepherds of lies Forced me to land and take a disguise. I would welcome a horse's kick to send me back If I could find a horse not made of sand. If this desert's all there'll ever be Then tell me what becomes of me. A fall of rain? That must have been another of your dreams, A dream of mad man moon. Hey man, I'm the sand man, And boy have I news for you; They're gonna throw you in gaol And you know they can't fail 'Cos sand is thicker than blood. But a prison in sand Is a haven in hell, For a gaol can give you a goal And a goal can find you a role On a muddy pitch in Newcastle, Where it rains so much You can't wait for a touch Of sun and sand. Within the valley of shadowless death They pray for thunderclouds and rain, But to the multitude who stand in the rain Heaven is where the sun shines. The grass will be greener till the stems turn to brown And thoughts will fly higher till the earth brings them down. Forever caught in desert lands one has to learn To disbelieve the sea. If this desert's all there'll ever be Then tell me what becomes of me. A fall of rain? That must have been another of your dreams, A dream of mad man moon Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Me Sarah Jane, Me Virgil, Misunderstanding, More Fool Me, Never A Time, No Replay At All, No Reply At All, No Son Of Mine, Not About Us, Not About Us (Banks/Rutherford/Wilson), Not About Us (BanksRutherfordWilson), On The Shoreline, One Day, One Eyed Hound, One for the Fine, One For The Vine, One Mans Fool, One Mans Fool, One-Eyed Hound, Open Door, Pacidy, Pacidy - Genesis (1970), Pacidy Genesis 1970, Papa He Said, Paperlate, Pigeons Banks Rutherford Collins, Please Dont Ask, Please Dont Ask, Riding The Scree, Ripples, Robbery Assault amp Battery, Robbery, Assault And Battery, Robbery Assault Battery, Robbery, Assault & Battery, Run Out Of Time, SAY ITS ALLRIGHT JOE, Say Its Alright Joe, Say Its Allright Joe, Say Its Alright Joe, SCENES FROM A NIGHT DREAM, Scenes From A Nights Dream, Scenes From A Nights Dream, Seven Stones, Shes So Beautiful, Shes So Beautiful (Early demo - Only on new release of, Shes So Beautiful (Early demo - Only on new release of F, Shepherd, Shes So Beautiful, Shipwrecked, Sign Your Life Away, Other Genesis song Lyrics Inside And Out Lyrics Its Yourself Lyrics Pigeons Lyrics Second Home By The Sea Lyrics The Day The Light Went Out Lyrics The Shepherd Lyrics A Place To Call My Own Lyrics A Trick of the Tail Lyrics A Visit To The Doctor Lyrics A Visit To The Doktor Lyrics A Winters Tale Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Genghis Khan Lyrics Genitallica Lyrics Genitorturers Lyrics Genitortures Lyrics Genius Lyrics Genius And Gza Lyrics Genius Cru Lyrics Genius/GZA Lyrics GeniusGZA Lyrics Giant Gentle Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
