Lyrics

I've watched the stars fall silent From your eyes All the sights that I have seen I can't believe that I believed I wished That you could see There's a new planet In the solar system There is nothing up my sleeve I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs I'm tossing out punchlines That were never there Over my shoulder a piano falls Crashing to the ground In all this talk of time Talk is fine But I don't want to stay around Why can't we pantomime Just close our eyes And sleep sweet dreams Me and you with wings on our feet I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs I'm tossing out punchlines That were never there Over my shoulder a piano falls Crashing to the ground I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers in full bloom I'm looking for answers From the great beyond I want the hummingbirds The dancing bears Sweetest dreams of you I look into the stars I look into the moon I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs I'm tossing out punchlines That were never there Over my shoulder a piano falls Crashing to the ground I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers In full bloom I'm looking for answers From the great beyond I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers In full bloom I'm looking for Answers from the great Answers from the great, answers I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers In full bloom I'm looking for answers From the great beyond I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers In full bloom I'm looking for Answers from the great Answers from the great, answers I'm breaking through I'm bending spoons I'm keeping flowers In full bloom I'm looking for Answers from the great beyond
