r.e.m. - the great beyond - live in dublin / 2005 lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’ve watched the stars fall silent from your eyes
all the sights that i have seen
i can’t believe that i believed
i wished that you could see
there’s a new planet in the solar system
there is nothin’ up my sleeve

[refrain]
i’m pushin’ an elephant up the stairs
i’m tossin’ up punch lines that were never there
over my shoulder, a piano falls
crash into the ground
[verse 2]
in all this talk of time, talk is fine
but i don’t want to stay around
why can’t we pantomime
just close our eyes and sleep sweet dreams
me and you with wings on our feet

[refrain]
i’m pushin’ an elephant up the stairs
i’m tossin’ up punch lines that were never there
over my shoulder, a piano falls
crash into the ground

[chorus]
i’m breaking through, i’m bending spoons
i’m keeping flowers in full bloom
i’m looking for answers from the great beyond

[verse 3]
i want the hummingbirds, the dancing bear
sweetest dreams of you
i’m lookin’ to the stars
look into the moon

[refrain]
i’m pushing an elephant up the stairs
i’m tossing up punch lines that were never there
over my shoulder, a piano falls
crash into the ground
[chorus]
i’m breaking through, i’m bending spoons
i’m keeping flowers in full bloom
i’m looking for answers from the great beyond

i’m breaking through, i’m bending spoons
i’m keeping flowers in full bloom
i’m looking for answers from the great beyond

i’m breaking through, i’m bending spoons
i’m keeping flowers in full bloom
i’m looking for answers from the great beyond
answers from the great
answers

[outro, spoken]
thank you very much
no, wait+ sh+t!
i made a pact at the beginning of the european tour
that the phrase “thank you very much” was a really stupid thing to say to a large group of people, so
thanks a lot
this next song is a love song, and it takes place in my home away from home
new york city
