Hello, I saw you, I know you, I knew you I think I can remember your name...name Hello I`m sorry, I lost myself I think I thought you were someone else Should we talk about the weather? (Hi...hi, hi) Should we talk about the government? (Hi...hi, hi, hi) Hello, how are you? I know you, I knew you I think I can remember your name...name Hello, I`m sorry I lost myself I think I thought you were someone else Should we talk about the weather? (Hi...hi, hi) Should we talk about the government? (Hi...hi, hi, hi) Hello my friend, are you visible today? You know I never knew that it could be so strange...strange Hello, I`m sorry, I lost myself I think I thought you were someone else Should we talk about the weather? (Hi...hi, hi) Should we talk about the government? (Hi...hi, hi, hi) <HR><p>Sleep delays my life (get up, get up) Where does time go? (get up, get up, get up) I don`t know Sleep, sleep, sleepy head (get up, get up, get up) Wake it up...up (get up, get up) You`ve got all your life (way up ahead) (get up, get up, get up) Dreams they complicate my life (Dreams they complement my life) I`ve seen you laying pined (get up, get up) I`ve seen you laying pined (get up, get up) Life is rough...rough (get up, get up, get up) I`ve seen you laying down (get up) With the loving kind (get up, get up) I know life is hard...hard (where goes your time?)

(get up, get up) <HR><p>Sometimes I feel like I can`t even sing (say, say, the light) I`m very scared for this world I`m very scared for me Eviscerate your memory Here`s a scene You`re in the back seat laying down The windows wrap around To sound of the travel and the engine All you hear is time stand still in travel and feel such peace and absolute The stillness still that doesn`t end But slowly drifts into sleep The stars are the greatest thing you`ve ever seen And they`re there for you For you alone you are the everything I think about this world a lot and I cry And I`ve seen the films and the eyes But I`m in this kitchen Everything is beautiful And she is so beautiful She is so young and old I look at her and I see the beauty Of the light of music The voices talking somewhere in the house Late spring and you`re drifting off to sleep With your teeth in your mouth You are here with me You are here with me You have been here and you are everything (repeat 1st verse) <HR><p>Stand in the place where you live Now face North Think about direction Wonder why you haven`t before Now stand in the place where you work Now face West Think about the place where you live Wonder why you haven`t before If you are confused check with the sun Carry a compass to help you along Your feet are going to be on the ground Your head is there to move you around (repeat 1st verse) Your feet are going to be on the ground Your head is there to move you around If wishes were trees the trees would be falling Listen to reason Season is calling (repeat 1st verse) If wishes were trees the trees would be falling Listen to reason Reason is calling Your feet are going to be on the ground Your head is there to move you around So Stand (stand) Now face North Think about direction, wonder why you haven`t before Now stand (stand) Now face West Think about the place where you live Wonder why you haven`t (repeat 1st verse) Stand in the place where you are (Now face North) Stand in the place where you are (Now face West) Your feet are going to be on the ground (Stand in the place where you are) Your head is there to move you around, so stand. <HR><p>(from the _Green_ inner sleeve/booklet/insert) I sit at my table and wage war on myself It seems like it`s all...it`s all for nothing I know the barricades, and I know the mortar in the wall breaks I recognize the weapons, I used them well This is my mistake.
