Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies, Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I
Ice is forming on the tips of my wings .
Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything
No navigator to guide my way home .
Unladened, empty and turned to stone
A soul in tension that's learning to fly .
Condition grounded but determined to try Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies, Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I F ............ slide up to g triad & back many times.......... Am D
Above the planet on a wing and a prayer,
My grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air,
Across the clouds I see my shadow fly
Out of the corner of my watering eye
A dream unthreatened by the morning light
Could blow this soul right through the roof of the night There's no sensation to compare with this
Suspended animation, A state of bliss
Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies,
Tongue-tied and twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I
