It was a beautiful night, yeah the moon was climbing out of the mountains And from the city in the ground came the sound of a million lights We were headed to the centre of our brain when they came a'knocking They said, we've seen you before and we really like all of your stories This world of wonder We'll eat the bones of man We never wanted to leave you This world of wonder We'll eat the bones of man We never wanted to leave you When it touched my hand I felt my mind open up like a valley And from a crack in the ground came the sound of a million legs There was a silent flash before the Earth started closing up on itself I felt at peace and alive even though the ship was goin' down This world of wonder We'll eat the bones of man We never wanted to leave you This world of wonder We'll eat the bones of man We never wanted to leave you
