Monochrome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's 4 in the morning July of '69 Me and my sister We crept down like shadows They're bringing the moon right down to our sitting-room Static and silence and a monochrome vision [Chorus] They're dancing around Slow puppets silver ground And the world was watching with joy We hear a voice from above and it's history And we stayed awake all night [Verse 2] And something is said and the whole room laughs aloud Me and my sister Looking on like shadows The end of an age as we watched them walk in a glow Lost in space, but I don't know where it is [Chorus 2] They're dancing around Slow puppets silver ground And the stars and stripes in the sand We hear a voice from above and it's history And we stayed awake all night [Instrumental] [Chorus 3] They're dancing around It sends a shiver down my spine And I run to look in the sky and I half expect to hear them asking to come down (oh) Will they fly or will they fall? To be excited by a long late night
