Ellis Paul - Speed Of Trees Lyrics
SometimesIn my bed at nightIm dreaming that Im flyingAt the speed of lightIn two secondsIm brushing pastThe face of the moon8 seconds flat onThe surface of MarsIm kicking upThe red dustDrinkin in barsI lean back and raise aToast to the stars tonightDreamin at the speed of lightSomedays,Id just settle forThe speed of soundId step off this porchAnd blow a kiss to this goddamn townId let offOne of them sonic boomsAnd break all the windowsIn the living roomsAnd blow off the hatsOf the boysAt the old fairgroundsLaughin at the speed of soundAnd You say,Go.Why dont you go then?If you want to goWhy dont you decide?Pick a road,DecideIs it a trainOr a planeOr a brideDecideDecideDecideYour love makes me move at theSpeed of treesIve laid down some rootsGrown a head fullOf make-believesBut up above meWhere the angels soarTheyre rattlin windowsBlowin down doorsThey look at me hereIm planted square downOn my kneesOn my kneesOn my kneesIm asking for the speed of treesThe speedoftrees
