Out Of This World

(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth & john helmer)



Three hundred miles an hour on water

In your purpose-built machine

No one dared to call a boat



Screaming blue

Out of this world

Make history

This is your day

Blue bird



At such speeds... things fly



What did she say?...



I know the pain of too much tenderness

Wondering when or if you'll come back again

Wanting to live for you

And being banned from giving



But only love will turn you around

Only love will turn you around

Only love

Only love will turn you around



So we live you and i

Either side of the edge

And we run and we scream

With the dilated stare of obsession and dreaming

What the hell do we want is it only to go

Where nobody has gone

A better way than the herd

Sing a different song

Till you're running the ledge

To the gasp from the crowd

Spinning round in your head

Everything that she said...
