The Great Beyond

R.E.M.

3

I´ve watched the stars fall silent from your eyes

All the sights that I have seen

I can´t believe that I believed I wished

That you could see

There´s a new planet in the solar system

There is nothing up my sleeve

I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs

I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there

Over my shoulder a piano falls

Crashing to the ground

In all this talk of time

Talk is fine

But I don´t want to stay around

Why can´t we pantomime, just close our eyes

And sleep sweet dreams

Me and you with wings on our feet

I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs

I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there

Over my shoulder a piano falls

Crashing to the ground

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great beyond

I want the hummingbirds, the dancing bears

Sweetest dreams of you

I Look into the stars

I Look into the moon

I´m pushing an elephant up the stairs

I´m tossing up punchlines that were never there

Over my shoulder a piano falls

Crashing to the ground

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great beyond

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great

Answers from the great, answers

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great beyond

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great

Answers from the great, answers

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great beyond

I´m breaking through

I´m bending spoons

I´m keeping flowers in full bloom

I´m looking for answers from the great

Answers from the great, answers.,
