[INTRO/INSTRUMENTAL/FADE IN] [AD-LIB] dah dah dah dah da ah ah ah ooo [VERSE] my sandbox in fall in bright maple leaves and a cold day breeze gets me wondering so many more things [VERSE] how high is up how deep is down can you have a dream about nothing nothing at all [VERSE] where does the dark go when you turn off the light what does quiet sound like and then there’s this tree in the forest [BRIDGE] when did I start to trade silly questions for grown up concessions [CHORUS/BRIGHT MAJOR LIFT] If we’re born knowin’ nothin’ then maybe I should sing somethin’ prettier If we’re born knowin’ nothin’ then maybe I should sing somethin’ prettier (a prettier song) all about stars so far away and the places they go in the shiny day all about stars so high in the sky and the way they twinkle like the light in my eyes the twinkle my eyes still in the mirror [INSTRUMENTAL] [VERSE] so I still don’t know what was before the beginning and what comes after tomorrow [VERSE] can you tell me How long is forever What color’s the wind Is there too far away for a day to begin? [VERSE] can dogs go to heaven how big is big why can bees fly when they’re not supposed to [BRIDGE] when did I start to trade silly questions for grown up concessions [CHORUS/BRIGHT MAJOR LIFT] If we’re born knowin’ nothin’ then maybe I should sing somethin’ prettier If we’re born knowin’ nothin’ then maybe I should sing somethin’ prettier (a prettier song) all about stars so far away and the places they go in the shiny day all about stars so high in the sky and the way they twinkle like the light in my eyes the twinkle my eyes still in the mirror [DECRESCENDO/FADE]
