It's a remarkable thing
My only regret is that we couldn't get there first
Our prestige
I don't think it's going to hand-
Enhance it any at this time
But I imagine-
Sometimes
Yeah we feel like flying
Sometimes
We fall down
One time
I dreamt I was at an opera
She sang of war and love and faith
I tried to tell them what she told me
But I can't get through
At first
You know
The world is always
(Beautiful, beautiful)
Being on the edge of catastrophe
Since it's existed
I don't think it's much worse now than it has ever been
If you read the history
You'll see every generation has a terror-
Sometimes
Yeah we feel like flying
(Of being destroyed completely, or something like that, I mean nowadays-)
Sometimes
We fall down
(It's exactly the same with a little more-)
