[Intro] Oh, yeoman [Verse 1] Man, it’s good to see you This must be the airship And are these your fellow crew? Where are we headed? I have nothing to do Would you show me green And would you show me blue? We’ll follow where the moons move You and I invent the ballroom Placing pushpins on the star chart Wellspring of adventure that is begging to embark [Pre-Chorus 1] Let’s move from the stateroom, through the galley Deck level with stars like an endless sea Flail me out onto the false dance floor Take my face and show me what for Your kiss is a swell The feeling like a buoyant waltz Look goddamnit, no, I don’t know how I love it though your steps are never gonna make a lick of sense [Chorus] Left my life on the ground To dance with you in the clouds Forgot my life on the ground Oh, yeoman, we’re far gone now Oh, yeoman [Verse 2] Let me bore you here under the Moon Robed in the armillary room Inert for all my years And then fell into you These routes that you just so ornately improvise They’re always wild And I don’t seem to mind Put me to work, I want some value
I want big arms to put around you To get lost in all your birthmarks Wellspring of adventure that is begging to embark [Pre-Chorus 2] Lets move from the stateroom, through the galley Gliding in the dark on an endless sea Catch my footing while I follow yours Take my face and show me what for Come, kiss me swell The feeling like a buoyant waltz Look, goddamnit, no, I don’t know how I love it though your steps are never gonna make a lick of sense [Chorus] Left my life on the ground To dance with you in the clouds Forgot my life on the ground Oh, yeoman, we’re far gone now Oh, yeoman [Instrumental Bridge] [Pre-Chorus 2] Stateroom through the galley Gliding in the dark on an endless sea Catch my footing while I follow yours Take my face and show me what for Come, kiss me swell The feeling like a buoyant waltz Look goddamnit, no, I don’t know how I love it though your steps are never gonna make a lick of sense [Chorus] Left my life on the ground To dance with you in the clouds Forgot my life on the ground Oh, yeoman, we’re far gone now Oh, yeoman
