Dear, |
|
How are things in your little world, i hope they're going well and you are too. |
|
Do you still see the same old crowd, the ones who used to meet every friday. |
|
I'm really sorry that i can't be there but work comes first, i'm sure you'll understand. |
|
Things are really taking off for me business is thriving and i'm showing a profit and. |
|
And in any case it wouldn't be the same, 'cause we've all grown up and we've got our lives |
|
And the values that we had once upon a time, seem stupid now 'cause the rent must be paid |
|
And some bonds severed and others made. |
|
Now i don't want you to get me wrong, ideals are fine when you are young and i must admit |
|
We had a laugh, but that's all it was and ever will be, 'cause the burning sky keeps |
|
Burning bright. and as long as it does (and it always will), there's no time for dreams |
|
When commerce calls. and the taxman's shouting 'cause he wants his dough and the wheels of |
|
Finance won't begin to slow. |
|
And it's only us realists who are gonna come through 'cause there's only one power higher |
|
Than that of truth and that's the burning sky. |
|
Oh and by the way i must tell you, before i sign off, that i've got a meeting next week, |
|
With the head of a big corporate i can't disclose who but i'm sure you'll know it and. |
|
And the burning sky - keeps burning bright. and it won't turn off til it's had enough, |
|
It's the greedy bastard who won't give up, and you're just a dreamer if you don't realize, |
|
And the sooner you do will be the better for you, then we'll all be happy and we'll all be |
|
Wise and all bow down to the burning sky. |
|
Then we'll all be happy and we'll all be wise and together we will live beneath the |
|
Burning sky. |
