Late New Years Eve paper hat on your head |
|
It was hard to believe that you'd ever be dead |
|
And that dream that you're falling you've had since you're five |
|
Is a bird on your shoulder that whispers goodbye |
|
What is moving will be still |
|
What has gathered will disperse |
|
What has been built up will collapse |
|
All of your dreams are fulfilled |
|
Evil Knievel shot up from dead grass |
|
And I loved him better each time that he crashed |
|
And Liza Minnelli spent a month in her bed |
|
She was certain that Skylab would fall on her head |
|
What is moving will be still |
|
What has gathered will disperse |
|
What's been built up will collapse |
|
All of your dreams are fulfilled |
|
Last night I dreamed that I dug my own grave |
|
And I climbed down inside there to patiently wait |
|
And down in the ground while I breathed the cold air |
|
The blackbirds came down there to nest in my hair |
|
What's moving will be still |
|
What has gathered will disperse |
|
What has been built up will collapse |
|
All of your dreams |
|
All of your dreams are fulfilled |
|
Are fulfilled |
|
Are fulfilled |
|
Are fulfilled |
|
Are |
