In the park there's a wicker made plane
|
that crashed down just the other day.
|
The pilot had lost his way, got disoriented
|
and crash landed in the middle of the city.
|
He'd never seen buildings so tall
|
and wondered why they even didn't ever think to lean over and fall,
|
and wondered how he'd manage to navigate through them all like he did.
|
|
But oh how they seemed to lean over him now,
|
as if to peer down on the broken scene.
|
As if to question the innocent invasion of the stranger
|
brought down in the hurricane.
|
|
He said wherever I am Lord,
|
please you must explain,
|
just hours ago I took off in my wicker plane.
|
|
Night fell and with it came the rain.
|
Down on the buildings, the pilot the plane.
|
Rain ran down his hair, hangin' so low
|
makin' circles in the puddles where the drops would go.
|
|
A little boy came along,
|
took him to a tree on top a gentle slope
|
said this tree is a misfit like you and me.
|
On rainy nights like this the bark come off like rope.
|
They bundled up the bark, each took a load.
|
Took it to the high rise where the little one lived.
|
Tossed it down the park with a mighty throw
|
and watched it unroll to the ground round.
|
The pilot ran down, tied the bark to the prop
|
and then promptly left the park to go back to the top.
|
There they hauled the plane clear up to the roof,
|
the boy said the place you come from that's where I'll be from too.
|
|
Where ever I am Lord,
|
please you must explain.
|
Just hours ago I was taking off in my wicker plane (wicker plane)
|
|
Now you're in a lovely garden,
|
it's such a lovely garden.
|
Now you're in a lovely garden,
|
it's such a lovely garden.
|
Now you're in a lovely garden,
|
it's such a lovely garden.
|
|
Wherever I am Lord, I know where I am Lord.
|
Wherever I am Lord, I know where I am Lord.
|
|
Where ever I am Lord, please you must explain.
|
Just hours ago I was taking off in my wicker (wicker) wicker (wicker) plane
