By the night I know myself

Shadow by the bookshelf

But I want to be here today

Where the power lines sway

Lives lived in parallel

Ghosts on a carousel

Will the echoes ever coalesce

In this restlessness

Dandelion take me away

Above the tall grass of the glass afternoon

I thought I had something to say

The tigers still play but they're leaving here soon

Ice melts, the ocean sings

Clear as cicada wings

But the stars seem so out of hand

Like these grains of sand

Blueprints washed to the sea

Fading into history

Feeds back so subtly

In prophetic dreams

Dandelion take me away

Above the tall grass of the glass afternoon

I thought I had something to say

The tigers still play but they're leaving here soon

Buried in moonlight underneath the satellite

Persuaded by this statue in to missing my cue

Dandelion take me away

Above the tall grass of the glass afternoon

I thought I had something to say

The tigers still play but they're leaving here soon
