Bubbles - Ian Brown

Misty mountain crevices hold treasures buried deep

A blizzard or rain can’t wash any memories that you keep

I just came in on the banana boat, got born only yesterday

Came down through the stars, I landed from Mars

Made my way through the Milky Way

Last I saw you metamorphasized, a chrysalis into a butterfly

You opened your wings, such beautiful things, and then I saw you fly away so

high

A bird’s-eye view up to the stratosphere, all the universe reflected in your

eyes

I came to despise your see-through disguise

Your web of lies, and all the empty words you say

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

Last I saw you change inside, a chrysalis into a butterfly

You open your wings, such beautiful things

And then I watch you fly away to die

I just came in on the banana boat, got born only yesterday

Came down through the stars, I landed from Mars

Made my way through the Milky Way

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air

But bubbles can rise

But pop when they reach the top
