Graham Parker - Blue Horizon lyrics

Artist: Graham Parker

album: Carp Fishing On Valium - The Songs


We'd follow the sound of the dirt tracking bikes
Into the sunset into the sunset
Or the wings of a painted lady butterfly
That escaped the net escaped the net
Or the cry of a long lost bird
That defied identification
You could hear it from the air raid shelter
With the walls soaked to saturation
These dreams will never sleep
They wake me from my adult slumber
They have no schedule to keep
And they drive me onward
Into the blue horizon
I'd hit the ground running
I'd hit the ground hard
And jump up alert jump up alert
My mother and father watched over me
And made sure I never really got hurt
Made sure I was never stifled or bound
That's what everybody
Needs in their background
That's the rock you build your mountain on
And it can never never fall down
These dreams will never sleep
They wake me from my adult slumber
They have no schedule to keep
And they drive me onward
Into the blue horizon
My friends all grew up
And some went out
All around the world and back again too
Some of them stayed put in their home town
Well there's worst things that you can do
Some of them married
A couple of them died
Some of them just go along for the ride
Can't claim to understand what it all means
Probably nothing but that's not how it seems
These dreams will never sleep
They wake me from my adult slumber
They have no schedule to keep
And they drive me onward
Into the blue horizon
