Fish Tank Songtext
von Martha Tilston

On the long, long straight road
I think I see a turn
And it′s been so many years
Just waiting for this burn
Fluidity, come back to me
Alone
In the basement café light
Watching fish swim round a tank all night
But I heard them say

Lift the lid off
I think I've got wings
Lift the lid off
I think I′ve got wings
Somewhere, somewhere
You feel light within
Now lift the lid off
'Cos I think I've got wings
We′ll try them out


Longing is a feeling can sail
For an age, an age, an age
It′s a pencil trace
Across the thin, thin page
So creativity come back to me
Away
In the coffee machine light
Watching fish swim round a tank all night
But I heard them say

Lift the lid off
I think I've got wings
Lift the lid off
I think I′ve got wings
Somewhere, somewhere
You feel light within
Now lift the lid off
'Cos I think I′ve got wings
Lift the lid off
I think I've got wings
(Maybe you may find wings)
Lift the lid off
I think I′ve got wings
(Maybe I will have wings)
Somewhere, somewhere
You feel light within
(Maybe there's a light within, sure)
Lift the lid off
'Cos I think I do have wings


On the long, long straight road
I think I see a turn
And it′s been so many years
Since I felt this burn
Fluidity, come back to me
Alone
In the basement café light
Watching fish swim round a tank all night
Watching fish swim round a tank all night
Watching fish
Swim round
A tank all night
