legendary pink dots - eight minutes to live lyrics

your hand was freezing, so i slipped it in my pocket and
strolled across the quay side looking at the sky for
darting rockets.
they turned the stars a shade of yellow, blazing trails
across the planets.
hi ho silver, day-glo amber.
no go red.
caroline was colour blind though she dreamed of golden
sunsets and a sea of soldier blue with out the blood.

is the daytime just a dream?
if you close your eyes, will i fade away?
ohhhh
