SOLSBURY HILL

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill I could see the city light Wind was blowing, time stood still Eagle flew out of the night He was something to observe Came in close, I heard a voice Standing, stretching every nerve I had to listen, had no choice I did not believe the information Just had to trust imagination My heart goin' boom-boom-boom Son, he said, grab your things I'm going to take you home And I will To keep in silence I resigned My friends would think I was a nut Turning water into wine Open doors would soon be shut So I went from day to day But my life was in a rut Till I thought of what I'd say Which connection I should cut I was stealing part of the scenery I walked right out of the machinery My heart goin' boom-boom-boom Hey, he said, grab your things I'm going to take you home Yeah, back home Wet illusions in a net I never will, I wanna be And liberty, she knew with wit Without me, then I am free Watched my empty silhouette Who close their eyes and still can see No one taught them any pet I wish your love for me Today I don't need a replacement I tell them not to spy on my basement My heart goin' boom-boom-boom Hey, I said, you can keep my things And come and take me home
