==Lyrics== | |||
Citizens of the true world hang out their laundry<br> | |||
Ecstasy in every glance, love in every touch<br> | |||
Nothings wasted, their perfume floats over the streets<br> | |||
No dead leaves underfoot, the sidewalks glow under mercurial feet | |||
On good days we pretend we're just like them<br> | |||
On good days we pretend that we are one with them | |||
The wind is warm and rich as Howard Hughes was<br> | |||
Look at them lay on their backs in the grass<br> | |||
that grows through the true world | |||
Everything in the world quivers with excitement to be you<br> | |||
Every moment of the world to be you | |||
On good days we'll pretend that the chill has reached our bones<br> | |||
On good days we'll pretend we can lead a normal life | |||
