Jefferson Starship - Hyperdrive lyrics

rate me

I never thought there were corners in time

Till I was told to stand in one

One straight line head on into the other

Maybe standing in the corner looks like where it's got to come.

But I pretend one wall is the past and one is the future

And I just stand here like the present looking for a

Good place to run

Every fish that swims upstream now that's a catch

Because the full mouth never wants to stop cooking.

The map may be flatthe globe may be patched

But the long line keeps right on hooking

Circles in the ring of firewhere do you go

On a night that is clear and warm?

Oh where do you go?

I never thought there were corners in time

Till I was told to stand in one

I've heard circles moving right through corners

And they don't even know they've been around and around before

Ringingringing against each other on a singing chain

Like a flying magnet hyperdrive has never seen any reason

To remain the same.

Because I felt it I believe it

Because there are things I've never seen that I believe

So I'm going to place my face right in the triangle door

Till I can move right on through instead of just standing here

Looking at the floor.

And it rains again tonightI can think light years ahead

Or I could put myself back a thousand years ago

As if I'd always been here before or as if I am still to be born

I'm a slow loserbut I'm a fast learner

That much I know

Anyone can go

That much I know

Anyone can go

That much I know

Anyone can go.
