Start in Light Songtext
von Elysian Fields

The numbers have grown tremendously
That i could host a tea party
But none of you are tea drinkers anyway
Looks like martinis today
Straight up and extra dry
Hey daddy here′s mud in your eye
Here's to all the dearly departed
And finishing up what you started

Just as a rocket splits apart
Alive
Barely a chance to make a start
In light

If i don′t answer when you call
I'm not ignoring you at all
Just trying to make sense of the senseless
Left you with these chumps and their fences


And when i forget my head
Recall the funny things you said
And the way it felt to be near you
No matter which way the wind blew

Just as a rocket splits apart
The night
Barely a chance to make a start
In light

All of you warned me this world could be bought and sold
So many people busy doing what they're told
But the right stuff ain′t the right stuff it′s just old
And i think of you when the cold wind blows
I tip my hat
And nod at cheshire cat
I got no answer but i hear you
I just got to continue

Got to continue
Oh tell me what else can i do
Oh tell me what else can i do
