Archer’s Arrows Songtext
von Crowded House

I lay on the floor and consider my room
The place to make a work of art
Up on the wall there′s an African mask
And a portrait of my dear old dog
Don't mind me, I′m taking a nap
That's how I read between the lines
On with the net, I am trying to collect
But today there's not an insect in sight

Inspiration
See the archer′s arrows fade
Time is wasting

Seasons change like thoughts on a page
And the birds are off heading south
Make your acceptance and keep a straight face
With the sucker hanging from your mouth


You can′t be safe
You can't betray your will
And we′re almost done
And it's time to take over the hill
Hey

And I can feel this shape
Gathering against my leg
There cannot be too much wrong
Whenever you come by my heart
I′m giving your love away
I keep coming back every day

See the archer's arrows fade
They seem tight, see the archer′s arrows fade
It is like, in the turn of armies' ray
The feels like, see the archer's arrows fade
Inspiration, see the archer′s arrows fade
