Sloan - PEOPLE OF THE SKY lyrics

rate me

(A. Scott/Sloan)

I once knew a pair

That used to fit very tight

But now a man's standing tall

In the wake of this night

Na na na na na

His eyes are watering in anger

At the thought of her sight

Na na na na na

The scene of adultery

Sets the stage for his plight

On an innocent trip

How can one ruin so much

A belief in a soul, in a beauty

Or in a touch

Ba ba bada ba

It's like a three-legged dog

In search of a crutch

Ba ba bada ba

Dissecting in past

All the motives of such

She once loved this person in a trial

Out of sight

Disposing of the present situation

It felt right

Ba ba bada ba

Two winters and summers

Passed over like a sound

Ba ba bada ba

And now the two of them are lost

In a screaming battleground

With support all around him

Like a fence or a drink

He realizes in sadness

That now he must begin to think

Ba ba bada ba

To filter his energy

Upon losses and fame

Ba ba bada ba

She'll think of the restful, the peaceful

Or the gain

His sister's a friend

She's like a relative to both

Obliged to her brother

Under silhouetted oath

Ba ba bada ba

But she's there for the two

With her bias undone

Ba ba bada ba

And she'll help see it through

Under moonlight or sun

But today they've still yet

To look each other in the eye

And in a second he manages to dip

To the other side

Ba ba bada ba

Up to the people of the sky

Ba ba bada ba

And now he'll never die
