Once, on the ground, there were spacemen from mars and big dinosaurs
and then there was me with 3 happy ghosts who lived on the coast in a big silver home
with plants who could talk and fish that could walk
and we lived on the ground
far from what we had known
we loved the ground
and made it our very own
Once, on the ground,
sky shining red and moon sounds that led us to one mountaintop
and we looked at ourselves and all we had done (we had lasted a while)
and we said our goodbyes
and we lived on the ground
far from what we had known
we loved the ground
and made it our very own
Once on the ground, we said our goodbyes to the ground.
