I was looking out and why
To see all the things we did
To see hope in where we hid
From the outside looking in
Was a stranger with a grin
Seeing bombhead on a rope
He was swinging high and low
High and low
Chorus
We were miles out to sea
Did we float you and me
Maybe one day we'll go back for more
We were miles From the bay
Did we float I should say
Maybe next time we'll leave from the shore
From the corner of my eye
I was looking out and why
There were sounds you never heard
Anfd then dump was the new word
Look at last night was that night
A sharp lady got it right
We sang songs from cabaret
And we laughed the night away
Right away
Chorus
The mad monk was such a sight
Red hair hanging in the light
And a temple to call home
Is he living there alone
From the outside looking in
Was a stranger with a grin
He saw all the things we did
We saw hope in where we hid
Yes we did
Chorus
From the corner of my eye I was looking out and why To see all the things we did To see hope in where we hid From the outside looking in Was a stranger with a grin Seeing bombhead on a rope He was swinging high and low High and low Chorus We were miles out to sea Did we float you and me Maybe one day we'll go back for more We were miles From the bay Did we float I should say Maybe next time we'll leave from the shore From the corner of my eye I was looking out and why There were sounds you never heard Anfd then dump was the new word Look at last night was that night A sharp lady got it right We sang songs from cabaret And we laughed the night away Right away Chorus The mad monk was such a sight Red hair hanging in the light And a temple to call home Is he living there alone From the outside looking in Was a stranger with a grin He saw all the things we did We saw hope in where we hid Yes we did Chorus Explain Request ×
