As I flew through indifferent clouds The pilots slept in liquid beds From roaring seas I heard their shouts Dead men turned magic blue to red Winds carried me through rain and thought Towards the eastern paradise My broken wings, freedom they brought Let me roam freely in splendid skies A star-ship hovering alert On through the waves of time and place Released from all the worldly hurt In the infinite depths of space... I danced upon the stratosphere Where icy winds my engines froze A sailor without grief and fear To live a life of joy I chose Once drowned in the poetic night Safe inside heaven's canopy Like tender lovers the sunlight In gentle hours embraced me Eternal storm, it blows me home Into oblivion deep down Wherever aeroplanes may roam Liquid soft clouds are my crown
