The Melody Of The K:
I remember back when I was young
When words not yet formed by my tongue
In a cradle in the sky-yy
By and by..
That old cradle rocked and rocked
Like a song, and yet a melody
It put me right to sleep.
And my nightmeres it did reaa-p.
By and by...
(And I know the names that surround us now.) x4
Chorus:
And like a cradle in the sky.
They all go by and by.
And like a cradle in the sky,
They float on in my mind.
Well, 22,000 years ago,
I was one to see the show
And I liked to rock right there
To rock by, through the air..
By and by...
(And I know the names that surround us now.) x4
Chorus:
And like a cradle in the sky.
They all go by and by.
And like a cradle in the sky,
They float on in my mind.
And like a million sheep they go
Through my mind, every night
Yeah, I swear I know the names
And I swear I know each face.
By and by..
My people are a happy one
Who have been born in a time of fun
A time when I fight all their wars
And they live on through each divorce
By and by..
(And I know the names that surround us now.) x4
Chorus:
And like a cradle in the sky.
They all go by and by.
And like a cradle in the sky,
They float on in my mind.
Well, 22,000 years ago,
I was one to see the show
And I liked to rock right there
To rock by, through the air..
By and by...
I remember back when I was young
When words not yet formed by my tongue
In a cradle in the sky-yy
By and by..
