about

music & words by Jeff Mitchell

lyrics

I once had a dream, or so it would seem
I'm waiting in a line, I'm having a good time
I get on a ride, it goes very high
It turns me upside down, and spins me all around

-- chorus --
Mary goes round, where she stops
Nobody knows why she hops
Into the night, she wanders
Into the light, she stumbles
Mary goes round, in circles
Wandering far, never re-
Turning again, she's lost her
Way in the stars, she's searching
Heavens above, she's searching

Then I see a crowd from up in my cloud
They're screaming at the sun for something that it's done
Fingers to the sky, all wondering why
That girl up the air has angels in her hair

-- chorus --

Gracefully falling apart, I have no inclination to start
Remembering my name, remembering the game
I like it up here, in the outer stratosphere
Far removed from the crowds, safe, up in the clouds

-- chorus --
