Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
I had to listen, had no choice

I did not believe the information
Just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom, boom, boom
Son, he said
Grab your things, I ve come to take you home
Hey, back home

To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Though my lif? was in a rut
Til I thought of what I d say
Which connection I should cut

I was feeling part of the scen?ry
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom, boom, boom
Hey, he said
Grab your things, I ve come to take you home
Hey, back home

When illusion spin her net
I m never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me

Today I don t need a replacement
I ll tell them what the smile
On my face meant
My heart going boom, boom, boom
Hey, I said
You can keep my things
They ve come to take me home
