Verse 1:Well I would keep it above but then it wouldn't be sky any moreDecide yourself: come in on a boatGuilty as you goTake a turn, take a turnChorus:Did you never call? I waited for your callJohn, Bill and Ed, stand on your headThere's a splinter in your eye and it reads reactWhat is in my mind, what is in my mindVerse 2:If I should die before I wake, oh, come on, hesitate, hesitate.Not everyone can carry the weight of the worldRadio Free EuropeTell now what is dreamingChorus:Did you never call? I waited for your callJohn, Bill and Ed, stand on your headThere's a splinter in your eye and it reads reactWhat is in my mind, what is in my mindBridge:Keep your luckOn her toes and she jumpedPay for your freedomPull your dress on and stay real closeVerse 3:Can you hear meDirt of seven continents going round and roundListen to my walls within my tongueSeven thousand years to form a united rainChorus:Did you never call? I waited for your callJohn, Bill and Ed, stand on your headThere's a splinter in your eye and it reads reactWhat is in my mind, what is in my mindDid you never call? I waited for your callJohn, Bill and Ed, stand on your headThere's a splinter in your eye and it reads reactWhat is in my mind, what is in my mind
