A Curve in the Air Lyrics

Winds of change on a mystified face

You'll stay like that forever

Digging up two decades ago

Like some low-rent tomb raider

Reading books I don't understand

I'm no facilitator

You're on board the Nova Express

You draw straight lines and follow them

There's too much sand in the desert tonight

For Lawrence of Arabia

There's a Curve in the Air

Thought he was a fireproof man

Can you smell the burning?

So navigate like never before

Because old signposts are returning

If future dreams are Ponzi schemes

And palaces are prisons

There's too much sand in the desert tonight

No water for the Bedouins

There's a Curve in the Air

And when the Pool Hall opens again

We'll shoot straight lines and follow them

Knock those spheres into next week

And stay like that forever

Forever
