We are movie stars in the backyard
Of this beautiful country house
We are ready for the show
With the lights out
We don't know who we've been
And where we're from
Don't know who we'll ever be
We are prisoners sometimes
Of our own lives
We've got time
So much time
When the deserts sink in
You and I will hold on
Hold on
We are aeroplane trails in a red sky
Little sparks of youth
We are paper pulp heroes
Feeling all the blues
We don't know who we've been
And where we're from
Don't know who we'll ever be
We've got pictures on the walls
To remind of us
When the deserts sink in
You and I will hold on
Hold on
We've got time
So much time
