An Endless Sky of Honey

Mummy Daddy The day is full of birds Sounds like they're saying words We're gonna be laughing about this We're gonna be dancing around It's gonna be so good now It's gonna be so good Oh so exciting, mmh go on and on Every time you leave us So Summer will be gone So you'll never grow old to us It's gonna be so good now It's gonna be so good Can you see the lark ascending? (What a lovely afternoon) Oh so romantic Swept me off my feet Like some kind of magic Like the light in Italy Lost its way across the sea Roma Roma mia Tesoro mio, bella Cielo mio Pieno di sole luce Bali così bene, bene Pianissimo Pianissimo What a lovely afternoon What a lovely afternoon Oh will you come with us To find the song of the oil and the brush Yes I need to get that tone a little bit lighter there Maybe with some dark accents coming in from the side Mmh, that's good Watching the painter painting And all the time, the light is changing And he keeps painting That bit there, it was an accident But he's so pleased It's the best mistake, he could make And it's my favourite piece It's just great The flick of a wrist Twisting down to the hips So the lovers begin With a kiss In a tryst Just a smudge But what it becomes In his hands Curving and sweeping Rising and reaching I could feel what he was feeling (Watching the painter painting) Lines like these have got to be An architect's dream It's always the same Whenever he works on a pavement (Watching the painter painting) It starts to rain And all the time The light is changing It's raining What has become of my painting? All the colours are running So all colours are run So all colours run See what they have become A wonderful sunset Could be honeycomb In a sea of honey A sky of honey Whose shadow, long and low Is slipping out of wet clothes? And changes into The most beautiful Iridescent blue Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk This is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Every sleepy light Must say goodbye To the day before it dies In a sea of honey A sky of honey Keep us close to your heart So if the sky stays dark We may live on in Comets and stars Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk This is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Who knows who wrote that song of Summer That blackbirds sing at dusk This is a song of colour Where sands sing in crimson, red and rust Then climb into bed and turn to dust Oh sing of Summer and a sunset And sing for us, so that we may remember The day writes the words right across the sky They go all the way up to the top of the night Oh sing of Summer and a sunset And sing for us, so that we may remember The day writes the words right across the sky They go all the way up to the top of the night Oh remember They go all the way up to the top of the night Drrrr di-da Drraa du-da Da dkhi dah da Daah D-Drrr da d-dp D-Drrr da Drrchk-k Dp-di da(hm)'d Drrr Doo doo da dp da doo dp Drrrr Hey you! Brrr chkhachk Lookh a me Brrr-in a tree We went up to the top of the highest hill And stopped Still, oh It was just so beautiful It was just so beautiful It was just so beautiful This is where the shadows come to play 'Twixt the day And night Dancing and skipping Along a chink of light Somewhere in between The waxing and the waning wave Somewhere in between What the song and silence say Somewhere in between The ticking and the tocking clock Somewhere in a dream between Sleep and waking up Somewhere in between Breathing out and breathing in Like twilight is neither night nor morning Not one of us would dare to break The silence Oh how we have longed For something that would Make us feel so Somewhere in between The waxing and the waning wave Somewhere in between The night and the daylight Somewhere in between The ticking and the tocking clock Somewhere in between What the song and silence say Somewhere in between Breathing out and breathing in Goodnight sun Goodnight sun Goodnight mum Sweet dreams On this midsummer night Everyone is sleeping We go driving Into the moonlight Could be in a dream Our clothes are on the beach These prints of our feet Lead right up to the sea No one, no one is here No one, no one is here We stand in the Atlantic We become panoramic We tire of the city We tire of it all We long for Just that something more Could be in a dream Our clothes are on the beach The prints of our feet Lead right up to the sea No one, no one is here No one, no one is here We stand in the Atlantic We become panoramic The stars are caught in our hair The stars are on our fingers A veil of diamond dust Just reach up and touch it The sky's above our heads The sea's around our legs In milky, silky water We swim further and further We dive down We dive down A diamond night And a diamond sky Could be we are here Could be in my dream It came up on the horizon Rising and rising In a sea of honey A sky of honey A sea of honey A sky of honey Look at the light And all the time it's a-changing Look at the light Climbing up the aerial Bright, white coming alive Jumping up off the aerial All the time it's a-changing Like now All the time it's a-changing Like then again All the time it's a-changing And all the dreamers are waking Oh the dawn has come And the wine will run And the flowers are melting In the sun I feel I want to be up on the roof I feel I gotta get up on the roof I feel I need to be up on the roof I wanna be up, up on the roof I feel I need to be up on the roof I feel I wanna be up on the roof I feel I gotta get up on the roof And the wine will run And the song must be sung And the flowers are melting I can't hear a word you're saying Tell me what are you singing? All of the birds are laughing Come on let's all join in Come on let's all join in I feel I want to be up on the roof I wanna be up, up on the roof Up, high, high on the roof I feel I gotta be up on the roof I feel I need to be up on the roof Up, up high on the roof High, high on the roof In the sun Look at my beautiful wings! My beautiful wings
