# #
Flashing back through the endless photographs
#
Such faces and such memories, Can't it be, can it be
I'm just dreaming I'm lust leaving,
Leaving the ground again
# #
Flashing back, I'm supposed to be so realistic,
#
So objective, so realistic It's just a trick
A trick of the light On my eyes
I prefer the lies, I prefer the air
Don't call me a fool (you're a fool) Don't call me a fool (you're a fool)
Take your banners away from my eyes, Take away your dogma and take away your lies
Don't call me a fool (youre a fool), such a fool
Flashing back, There were better times at last, it seems
I'm liaising with my dreams Closer to The one I am
The floating, the floating litlle man Flashing back
Don't call me a fool, don't call (you're a fool), don't call me a fool (you're a fool)
call me a fool (you're a fool) Take her away (you're a fool) your prayer books and your strain
The things you did again and again When I was so young
But now I know I prefer to flash back Sleeping on the way I do Maybe that's the only truth
Flashing back with you (you're a dreamer, you're a fool, you're a fool, you're a fool)
