Blue Horizon - Graham Parker

作曲：Graham Parker

We'd follow the sound of the dirt tracking bikes

Into the sunset into the sunset

Or the wings of a painted lady butterfly

That escaped the net escaped the net

Or the cry of a long lost bird

That defied identification

You could hear it from the air raid shelter

With the walls soaked to saturation

These dreams will never sleep

They wake me from my adult slumber

They have no schedule to keep

And they drive me onward into the blue horizon

Blue

Blue

Into the blue

Into the blue horizon

I'd hit the ground running I'd hit the ground hard

And jump up alert jump up alert

My mother and father watched over me

And made sure I never really got hurt

Made sure I was never stifled or bound

That's what everybody needs in their background

That's the rock you build your mountain on

And it can never never fall down

These dreams will never sleep

They wake me from my adult slumber

They have no schedule to keep

And they drive me onward into the blue horizon

Into the blue

Into the blue horizon

My friends all grew up and some went out

All around the world and back again too

Some of them stayed put in their home town

Well there's worst things that you can do

Some of them married a couple of them died

Some of them just go along for the ride

Can't claim to understand what it all means

Probably nothing but that's not how it seems

These dreams will never sleep

They wake me from my adult slumber

They have no schedule to keep

And they drive me onward into the blue horizon

Into the blue

Into the blue horizon

Into the blue

Into the blue horizon
