LyricsSolsbury Hill

Climbin' up on Solsbury Hill

I could see the city lights

Wind was blowin'

Time stood still

Eagle flew out of the night

He was somethin' to observe

Came in close

I heard a voice

Standing stretching

every nerve

I had to listen

Had no choice

I do not believe

the information

I just had to trust

imagination

My heart goin'

boom boom boom

Son

He said

Grab your things

I've come to take you home

And they will

To keep in silence

I resigned

My friends would think

I was a nut

Turning water into wine

Open doors

would soon be shut

So I went from day to day

Though my life was in a rut

'Til I thought of what I'd say

Which connection I should cut

I was feelin' part

of the scenery

I walked right out

of the machinery

My heart goin'

boom boom boom

Hey

He said

Grab your things

I've come to take you home

Hey ey back home

When illusion spin her net

I'm never where I wanna be

And liberty she pirouette

When I think that I am free

Watched by empty silhouettes

Who close their eyes

But still can see

No one taught them etiquette

I will show another me

Today I don't need

a replacement

I'll tell them what the smile

on my face meant

My heart goin'

boom boom boom

Hey

I said

You can keep my things

They've come to take me home
