Bright light in my eyes, oh, this desert's a tease
Giant heart, down in this dust
Fell to the earth at a fascinating speed
Well, further up in the ponderosa
The nervous coyotes caterwauling, their choruses foreboding
And couldn't you've stayed on the ground?
Couldn't you have stayed on your feet?
But your mind was wound so tightly
Always bold and wise and unsettling
I live in your tall trees, amongst your fearless leaves
Saw the bright colors, bright future
The night is patient, the night's a glass dome
The night is still and cold but this desert can turn
Your restless mind was born in a flash
And you lived in these clouds with lightning in your feet
And yes, your mind was wound so tightly
Always bold and wise and unsettling
I live in your tall trees, amongst your fearless leaves
Saw the bright colors, bright future
Bright future, bright pink Bright light in my eyes, oh, this desert's a tease Giant heart, down in this dust Fell to the earth at a fascinating speed Well, further up in the ponderosa The nervous coyotes caterwauling, their choruses foreboding And couldn't you've stayed on the ground? Couldn't you have stayed on your feet? But your mind was wound so tightly Always bold and wise and unsettling I live in your tall trees, amongst your fearless leaves Saw the bright colors, bright future The night is patient, the night's a glass dome The night is still and cold but this desert can turn Your restless mind was born in a flash And you lived in these clouds with lightning in your feet And yes, your mind was wound so tightly Always bold and wise and unsettling I live in your tall trees, amongst your fearless leaves Saw the bright colors, bright future Explain Request ×
