The Beach movie - Spinning Away lyrics

rate me

Song by Sugar Ray<br /><br>

Up on a hill, as the day dissolves<br>

With my pencil turning moments into line<br>

High above in the violet sky<br>

A silent silver plane - it draws a golden chain<br>

<br>

One by one, all the stars appear<br>

As the great winds of the planet spiral in<br>

Spinning away, like the night sky at Arles<br>

In the million insect storm, the constellations form<br>

<br>

On a hill, under a raven sky<br>

I have no idea exactly what I've drawn<br>

Some kind of change, some kind of spinning away<br>

With every single line moving further out in time<br>

<br>

And now as the pale moon rides (in the stars)<br>

Her form in my pale blue lines (in the stars)<br>

And there, as the world rolls round (in the stars)<br>

I draw, but the lines move round (in the stars)<br>

There, as the great wheels blaze (in the stars)<br>

I draw, but my drawing fades (in the stars)<br>

And now, as the old sun dies (in the stars)<br>

I draw, and the four winds sigh (in the stars)<br>

<br>
