I was taking the air one sunny evening Watching everything being - happily In the fire the restless sun was turning In my body the pages of my life And I saw them all soaring past From the first to the very last Through the surging crests of the waves Of a memory made from them all by everyone Yesterday's laughing, loving round my head I remember the times when I first met you (What a beautiful sunset sky) Pleading words, burning eyes, and ripping heartache Scorching fury of youth that fills me - yet But as sweet as these memories are (What a fantastic sky) They're as near as the furthest star Just a daydream away Sheltered by some nearest far What a sky - laughing, loving round my head What's her name? Er... she's a lovely piece Of woman Flowing hair In the early morning air Well I think I'll sit down and use this sunset As a timeship to travel through my mind And I'll wander just where I please Through my wallowing dreams with ease And the cows can come home and go out again And I'll still be here after pancake doomsday What a beautiful rambling mess we live
