lyrics

Sun is creeping across the sky
Never could get quite that high
I wish you could see me now
Ideas are floating clouds in our minds

Corners of outer space
They get rounder
At the edge of the stars
Is where I found her

It’s impossible to say
It’s impossible today
It’s impossible to stay
It’s impossible to say

Yeah yeah yeah…

Hey dream girl whatcha dreamin?
Did you have another nightmare today?
See you there floating by me
But ya gotta keep moving on

Stumbling backwards I find the feeling
I was seeking all along
Feel it inside me
Traveling onwards
Takes a lifetime just to know

It’s impossible to say
It’s impossible today
It’s impossible to stay
It’s impossible to say

Yeah yeah yeah!
