Intro: Am7 Dsus2
Am7 Dsus2
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
C C/B Am
I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs
I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
G
Crashing to the ground
Am7 Dsus2
And all this talk of time
Talk is fine
And I don´t want to stay around
Why can´t we pantomime, just
close our eyes and sleep sweet dreams
Being here with wings on our feet

I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears
Sweetest dreams of you
Look into the stars
Look into the moon
