"If I have seen further than other men,
It's because I have stood on the shoulders of giants."
Many eyes stare in envy
And take on the colour of the granite hills
And all the ravens rush by and turn yellow
And you know where to find her
Among God's frail little things
And you wait inside, you circle for her
No you won't hear the world falling apart
No you won't hear the world falling apart
And it's just the way she walks
Along the coloured parade
And it's just the way she walks beside you
And she does her trademark partisan dance
Bullets and all, rifle and grenades
And you fly, swinging around the towers with her
No you won't hear the world falling apart
No you won't hear the world falling apart
And you watch her
From your secret hide away
And you wanna be
With her every minute of every day
Yeah, you watch her
From your secret hideaway
And you wanna be
With her every minute of every day
And as long as the music is loud enough
We won't hear the world falling apart
No we won't hear the world falling apart
No we won't hear the world falling apart
Cities and fleets
They rise and fall
But the sea is forever
Dancing on the ridge
And you know once and for all
The smallest cleft is the hardest to bridge
