lyrics
Every day you try to wake up
You turn around, you get back in bed
You have a dream, the ceiling breaks up
Plaster snowfall on your head
You see the sky, you see the rooftops
A crowd of people like grains of sand
You hear a thousand sirens
You hear the giant laughter
And all at once the buildings clap their hands
We will all be there
to laugh at last together
We will all be there with
no place else to go
Weightless in the air,
I'm ready-
to remember
We will all be there, in time for the
last go.
You're still around, you'll wait for no one
The wager's on for one more day
It's not too late to let the rain come
Turn around and walk away
There's nothing new under a different sun
They'd recognize themselves in all we know
So happy days are
here again
Well no, I don't think so
We will all be there
to laugh at last together
We will all be there with
no place else to go
Weightless in the air,
I'm ready-
to remember
We will all be there, in time for the
last go.
