Running all around

Looking at the things

That I seem to see

That are filling me with wonder

And the other night

When you were just a flower

And there was a snowstorm

Right inside the bedroom

I became a bee

You became a scarecrow

And we had some trouble

'Cause we took a light bulb

Tried to turn it on

To illuminate the problem

But it took the darkness

And it made it double

I looked up in the sun

'Cause I thought I saw a light there

Up in the air

I know it was a rose

Still it was a nightmare

Up in the air

Platinum leaves

Spinning in the syrup

Shadows on a sandpaper wall

In a dust storm

And I got a mothball

Hanging from a candlewick

And a pair of cats eyes

And I got a nightstick

Everywhere I look

I think I see a shadow

Everywhere I step

Is looking like dumb luck

If I had a wish

I'd wish I was a caveman

Then I could fly like a goldfish in quicksand

I looked up in the sun

'Cause I thought I saw a light there

Up in the air

I know it was a rose

Still it was a nightmare

Up in the air

Little black tinman

A fist full of powder

Melting like a sugartree

Standing in a rainstorm

If I had a lie

I'd give it wings

And if I had a wish

I'd wish for everything

I looked up in the sun

'Cause I thought I saw a light there

Up in the air

I know it was a rose

Still it was a nightmare

Up in the air
