David Bowie - Memory of a Free Festival Part 1 lyrics
[David Bowie - Memory of a Free Festival Part 1 lyrics]
The children of the summer's end
Gathered in the dampened grass
We played our songs and felt the
London sky resting on our hands
It was God's land it was ragged and naive
It was Heaven
Touch, we touched the very soul of
Holding each and every life
We claimed the very source of joy ran through
It didn't, but it seemed that way
I kissed a lot of people that day
Oh, to capture just one drop of all
The ecstasy that swept that afternoon
To paint that love upon a white balloon
And fly it from the toppest top of all the
Tops that man has pushed beyond his brain
Satori must be something just the same
We scanned the skies with rainbow eyes and
Saw machines of every shape and size
We talked with tall Venusians passing through
And Peter tried to climb
Aboard but the Captain
Shook his head and away they soared
Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud
Someone passed some bliss among the crowd and
We walked back to the road, unchained
The Sun Machine is coming down
And we're gonna have a party
Gathered in the dampened grass
We played our songs and felt the
London sky resting on our hands
It was God's land it was ragged and naive
It was Heaven
Touch, we touched the very soul of
Holding each and every life
We claimed the very source of joy ran through
It didn't, but it seemed that way
I kissed a lot of people that day
Oh, to capture just one drop of all
The ecstasy that swept that afternoon
To paint that love upon a white balloon
And fly it from the toppest top of all the
Tops that man has pushed beyond his brain
Satori must be something just the same
We scanned the skies with rainbow eyes and
Saw machines of every shape and size
We talked with tall Venusians passing through
And Peter tried to climb
Aboard but the Captain
Shook his head and away they soared
Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud
Someone passed some bliss among the crowd and
We walked back to the road, unchained
The Sun Machine is coming down
And we're gonna have a party
