Paul Fox - Chalkhills and Children lyrics

I'm floating over strange land It's a soulless, sequined, showbiz moon I'm floating over strange land And then stranger still, there's no balloon But I'm getting higher Wafted up by fame's fickle fire 'til the Chalk hills and children Anchor my feet Chalk hills and children Bringing me back to earth Eternally and ever Ermine Street (Even I never know where I go when my eyes are closed) I'm skating over thin ice Upon blunted blades of metal soft I'm skating over thin ice While some none such net holds me aloft But I'm getting higher Lifted up on lucks' circus wire 'til the Chalk hills and children Anchor my feet Chalk hills and children Bringing me back to earth Eternally and ever Ermine Street Even I never know where I go when my eyes are closed Even I never spied that the scenes were posed Even I never knew this is what I'd be Even eyes never mean that you're sure to see Still I'm getting higher Rolling up on three empty tyres, 'til the Chalk hills and children Anchor my feet Chalk hills and children Bringing me back to earth Eternally and ever Ermine Street I'm soaring over hushed crowds The reluctant cannonball it seems I'm soaring over hushed crowds I'm propelled up here by long dead dreams Still I'm getting higher Icarus regrets and retires puzzled Chalk hills and children Anchor my feet Chalk hills and children Oddly complete (Even I never know where I go when my eyes are all closed) Here I go again
