歌词

[00:20.11] Follow me down, will you please,
[00:23.73] through these roads in my mind
[00:26.42]
[00:27.90] And I'll shut my eyes as we wait
[00:31.15]
[00:31.66] for the tape to rewind
[00:34.53]
[00:35.84] To an august of magic
[00:37.83] and dust and sour summer wine
[00:41.77]
[00:43.44] And it's there that my
[00:45.07] thoughts wander still every time
[00:49.32]
[00:50.43] That the wind moves
[00:52.12] through the branches of these pines
[00:54.16]
[00:55.08] And It casts a spell and holds me hypnotized
[00:57.96]
[01:02.21] Kites in a mackerel sky
[01:05.33]
[01:05.89] as we'd ride across the town on your bike
[01:10.09]
[01:10.88] The river lay still and mirrored the clouds
[01:15.78]
[01:17.53] It's funny how some things just stick in your mind
[01:23.90]
[01:25.39] But our summer-world was fading
[01:28.20]
[01:29.89] and running out of time
[01:31.70]
[01:32.88] As we walked through the last
[01:34.75] of that strange summer
[01:36.88] The day grew dark and left the park in slumber
[01:40.48]
[01:42.90] And suddenly I find myself inside a world
[01:46.59] beyond the looking glass
[01:48.78]
[01:51.08] Gazing back through time
[01:53.05] And everything is strange
[01:54.48] beyond the looking-glass
[01:56.79]
[01:58.42] beyond the looking-glass
[02:02.52]
[02:06.09] But let us now move from the sweet taste
[02:09.51] of a long summer's air
[02:11.69]
[02:13.80] Through autumns gentle
[02:15.68] unease and winter's despair
[02:20.30]
[02:21.54] To the view from a dull window sill
[02:24.48]
[02:25.54] and the bleak streets below
[02:27.88]
[02:29.88] A looking-glass world
[02:31.81] where the days are sleepy and slow
[02:35.44]
[02:36.86] And suddenly those days were just a memory
[02:39.87]
[02:40.93] A polaroid with colours fading strangely
[02:44.36]
[02:46.86] And suddenly I find myself inside a world
[02:50.41] beyond the looking glass
[02:52.47]
[02:54.84] And backwards moves the time
[02:57.02] And everything is strange beyond the looking-glass
[03:01.08]
[03:02.44] beyond the looking-glass
[03:06.38]
[03:24.92] And we would count the evening stars, remember?
[03:28.22]
[03:29.04] Falling just like leaves in windy weather
