Blinding, shining star
You won't see so far
Know what can't be shown
Feel what can't be known

You were an isle unto thyself
You had a heart you hadn't felt
Why would it hurt me?
Or was it real?
It was the night we had to part
We were afraid to miss the start
What did it matter?
Why would it matter?
And could we heal?

Blinding, shining star
You won't see so far
Know what can't be shown
Feel what can't be known

I was a victim of magic, Apollo
Catching my breath as I bled on the ground
Somebody called me to follow, I followed
Thinking aloud without hearing the sound

Then, all the planets fell to dust
Lonely, departing after us
Gone, not forgotten
Long, but forgotten old lore
In every element of life
Love camouflaging under strife
Or other matters
Mind over matters, let there be more

Maybe you'll exit tomorrow, the sorrow
Sweeping you off as your island replies
Sudden invincible flowing a river
Clearer than all thou might view with thine eyes

Why did fire-erupted lands arrive?
Why did murderous animals survive?
Why did we deserve to be revived?
Why was any and everything alive?

Look
Oh, look at what you've done now to me
Dead tired and ornery
I'm leaving today, today
Thinking of the way I used to spend the time
I can see that I have overpaid
Past is passed and rather than regret the old
I can live it back the other way

Just look
Oh, look at what you've done now to me
Free floating temporally
I'm leaving today, today
I avoid the messiness of misery
Playing in dimension number four
I can get away to any time I like
Space-time's any time and many more

Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
But you can make ever wait for you
Do what you want to do
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
You'll have time enough to spend some time alone

Wait
I await for all eternity
Withstanding modernity
Is where we must stay today
Now I know the nature of no urgency
Now I know why now is never gone
Fleeting in this mode of making memories
Keeping up this pace of keeping on

Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
But you can make ever wait for you
Do what you want to do
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
You'll have time enough to spend some time alone
All alone
I'm alone
I'm alone

Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
You've been waiting forever
Ooh, live the dream with a time machine
Ah-ah-ah-ah​​​​​​
