We stood so tall we caught a plane
by the wing and held it
Until we found it a place to land
We layed across the ocean wide
Bridged the gap in record time
The people traveled across and kissed our hands
All for love we become
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
We smiled so bright the sun went down
Rose above the maddening crowd
We lit the streets with the sweetest glow
We held the globe and made it turn
Wandered through the universe
The men of science observed through telescopes
All for love, we become
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become,
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
by the wing and held it
Until we found it a place to land
We layed across the ocean wide
Bridged the gap in record time
The people traveled across and kissed our hands
All for love we become
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone

Rose above the maddening crowd
We lit the streets with the sweetest glow
We held the globe and made it turn
Wandered through the universe

All for love, we become
Larger than lifesize, wondersome
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become,
Great in the eyes of someone
Larger than lifesize we become
Larger than lifesize we become
Great in the eyes of someone
Liar, liar
You're such a great big liar
With the tallest tales that I have ever heard
Fire, fire
You set my soul on fire
Laughing in the corner as it burns
Right between the ribs is sinking in
Oh, the sirens sing so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, oh, you talk to me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown
Sick and tired of this mad desire
Fluttering aside me like a hawk
Wire wire
Got my hands on wires
Will heaven help you when I get them out?
Right between the ribs
You'll feel it then
The sirens sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh, oh, you talk to me in siren song
Yeah, anyone would drown
Anyone would drown
All the ships go down
Following the sound
All the ships go down
Oh oh the siren sang so sweet and watched the sailors go down
Oh oh oh, you talk to me in siren song
You're such a great big liar
With the tallest tales that I have ever heard
Fire, fire

You say your time has come
You're tired of waking up
Don't be obscene, I can't conceive of
Living without you
You say you drag us down
No one should want you now
When I start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
I'm not allowed to
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes
You were a child forgot
Lessons of love untaught
Now no embrace can quite replace
The one that never found you
I was raised tenderly
All that was taught to me
I will apply, your parents tried but they didn't know how to
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes
Let me stand by you
The honor is mine
Let me stand by you
Loneliest light, loneliest light, loneliest light
Burning beacon in the night
Can't feel its heat, or see its light
That single solitary guide, it must get lonely there sometimes

You came with the season, as the first swallow sang
A brown headed stranger, with a five-letter name
We planted our kisses where the wild berries grow my feet sprouted wings and I flew all the way home dooodoodoo
My cheeks red like fire engines racing straight to the heat of your skin and I know our days are numbered, early bird of the summer you'll fly south just as the fall begins
The leaves changed their colors and the schoolyards were filled
My coat with the patches barely keeps out the chill dooo
You sent me a postcard from a town out of state, I wish it were warmer and I hope you're the same doopdoodoo
The fields where we wandered were golden
Now only muddy my boots and I know I should recover, you're a bird of the summer, I was wrong to try and capture you
Flight
Flight
Gone is the pale hand of winter
Here is the first flush of may
And soon I will discover whether birds of the summer fly in circles or just fly away
