Stone cold in this warm bed again
Wide awake and waiting for them
I send my shadow running on ahead again
I wait and wait and...
I'm waving in my beautiful friends
Over there on the end of
The bright light, the bright light, the bright light begins it

The grass is high and the sky is low, tonight
I wanna be here I wanna be gone
And this time I won't cry
I won't
I'm waving in my beautiful friends
Over there on the end of
The bright light, the bright light, the bright light begins it
And I get sucked into it again
Wild and high on the summer wind

I'm in for a love so tough
I could break my teeth
If I bit down hard upon it
And a voice so rich just the sound of it
Is forever nauseating
And I get sucked into it again
Wild and high on the summer wind
The bright light, the bright light, the bright light begins it
And I get sucked into it again
Wild and high on the summer wind
Wild and high on the summer wind
