(berry/buck/mills/stipe)<br><br><br>I've watched the stars fall silent from your eyes<br>All the sights that I have seen<br>I can't believe that I believed I wished<br>That you could see<br>There's a new planet in the solar system<br>There's nothing up my sleeve<br><br>(chorus 1)<br>I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs<br>I'm tossing up punchlines that were never there<br>Over my shoulder a piano falls<br>Crashing to the ground<br><br>And all this talk of time<br>Talk is fine<br>And I don't want to stay around<br>Why can't we pantomime, just close our eyes<br>And sleep sweet dreams<br>Being here with wings on our feet<br><br>(repeat chorus 1)<br><br>(chorus 2)<br>I'm breaking through<br>I'm bending spoons<br>I'm keeping flowers in full bloom<br>I'm looking for answers from the great beyond<br><br>I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears<br>Sweetest dreams of you<br>Look into the stars<br>Look into the moon<br><br>(repeat chorus 1)<br><br>(repeat chorus 2 2x)<br><br>I'm breaking through<br>I'm bending spoons<br>I'm keeping flowers in full bloom<br>I'm looking for answers from the great, answers from the great<br>I'm breaking through<br>I'm bending spoons<br>I'm keeping flowers in full bloom<br>I'm looking for answers from the great, answers from the great, answers
