[Intro] Handshake Hand clap Head spin Night cap [Verse 1] An immaculate perception In an instant on the brain In an average direction In the silver golden rain And there's more in the sea In the belly of the beast When the universe is trying Is there time? [Chorus] Over the silk of the sea On an orange afternoon Waiting for the sun Sits a strange and lonesome moon [Verse 2] And there's more to the feeling When you're melting in the dark In the hydro-chloric ocean It's the same [Chorus] Over the silk of the sea On an orange afternoon Waiting for the sun Sits a strange and lonesome moon
If the day could complete And bend its narrow scope The sun and moon would join at dusk And they would both elope [Verse 3] I fell asleep in an open doorway I got lost in an anecdote I walked into my own reflection I watched it turn into sand Have you been with ghosts that you never loose? Whiskey nights, liquid acid avenues [Chorus] Over the silk of the sea On an orange afternoon Waiting for the sun Sits a strange and lonesome moon If the day could complete And bend its narrow scope The sun and moon would join at dusk And they would both elope
