We, when its quiet, see swarms of things flicker by and shake you by the dust of their wings Oh, send it in the air And in a ray of light, you can hold it in your hand Its not easy, being born so free Bigger than a crowd could ever figure Id be Oh, send me in the air And in a ray of light, hold it in your head Im convinced your dream is something richer than a man could ever picture Too bad they just see rocks. To them theyre only stones. But its how you build a home. Still I dont believe loves so brief. Decades pass and pictures ask what did I mean? Oh send them through the air Until they switch the light off, Ill hold it in my head If we move backwards, I hope its some place richer than a man could ever picture Too bad they just see rocks. To them theyre only stones. But its to us theyre owed. Theres a reason why I sing this dream louder than a lullabye Oh, will you believe? You are in my hand and you are on my tongue under this cloud of dust Oh wrecking ball I see you working. Shining your light through this building. Youve come too soon
