How many times will the earth spin 'round?
Most spend their lives with their heads in the ground
Walking without ever taking a step
Speaking without making sound
Gold turns to rust as the leaves fall down
Dead fern and silence, the saddest sound
I was a lake that reflected the stars
You were the silent alarm, going off
Give me a sign
Turn on the warning light
That I'll carry all my life
Without always turning 'round
When you arrive
We'll be our own design
And you'll be the morning light
You're the one inside our minds
How many times will the earth spin 'round?
Most spend their lives with their heads in the ground
Walking without ever taking a step
Speaking without making sound
Give me a sign
Turn on the warning light
That I'll carry all my life
Without always turning 'round
When you arrive
We'll be our own design
And you'll be the morning light
You're the world outside tonight
Most spend their lives with their heads in the ground
Walking without ever taking a step
Speaking without making sound
Gold turns to rust as the leaves fall down
Dead fern and silence, the saddest sound
I was a lake that reflected the stars
You were the silent alarm, going off
Give me a sign
Turn on the warning light
That I'll carry all my life
Without always turning 'round
When you arrive
We'll be our own design
And you'll be the morning light
You're the one inside our minds
How many times will the earth spin 'round?
Most spend their lives with their heads in the ground
Walking without ever taking a step
Speaking without making sound
Give me a sign
Turn on the warning light
That I'll carry all my life
Without always turning 'round
When you arrive
We'll be our own design
And you'll be the morning light
You're the world outside tonight
