(lyrics and music by James Seals and Dash Crofts; French trans. by Susan Spitzer, 1969). From the album GET CLOSER (1976).. . She's not just another girl, she is from another world..
When I was 17, I. Dreamed of being king and. Having everything I wanted. . But that was long ago and. Dreams did not unfold so. I'm still the king of nothing.
Earth is my mother, no other my sanctuary. But earth is my prison, my grave and my mortuary. Give me a castle in the sun. Where rainbows have ends and people are one.
Why do birds fly in the summer sky. Hidden from the eyes of men, where have I been?. Why do things hinge on certain things, nothing is for sure. Only pure uninterrupted acts prevail, don't fail.
