Lyrics

I was staring at the sun
In the middle of the sky
With all my worries simplified
Dreaming of a place
We could grow old
When out of nowhere unforetold
And the worry in your eyes
When they took us by surprise is the last thing I remember hiding underground

And we’re off like a feather as we float through the heather
Not a word to the wise that we didn’t see it coming
And we’re off like a feather as we float through the heather
Now the first of the month is a long time, a long time coming

And I was hiding in the earth
In the middle of the night
With all my worry and my fright
Dreaming of your face
Your tiny button nose
How we ran when they came close
And suddenly a noise
An overwhelming joy when you
Came home safe and sound in the early morning

And we’re off like a feather as we float through the heather
Not a word to the wise that we didn’t see it coming
And we’re off like a feather as we float through the heather
Now the first of the month is a long time, a long time coming
