Memories of days as we walked on green hillsides
Scents of summer were high
We lay down so pleased with ourselves in the long grass
Eyes full of love, life's full of passion, passion for love
Passion for power, passion turned sour

And now I sit biding my time
Don't ask me why I've no tears to cry
'Cos they've turned my world upside down
Yes they've turned my world upside down
And we'll never see those green hills again

Check out the air today, switch on the radio
I'm bored and I wish I were home
Lay down beside me, oh hold me, enfold me
Hold me I'm scared, so scared of dying
Dying and...dying oh heavens above

And now I sit biding my time
Don't ask me why I've no tears to cry
'Cos they've turned my world upside down
Yes they've turned my world upside down

And we'll never see those green hills again
I'm afraid,god I'm afraid
Afraid of this monster
The future we made
Dark closes in, there's no air to breathe
Lord what I wouldn't give for one moment to really live
