You suddenly find you're standing
Looking over the edge of time
You can't remember handling
Situations and nursery rhymes
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Lead me back to sanity's side
I've been a few places darling
Experimented and looked around
It's time I was returning
Get my feet back on solid ground
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Lead me back to sanity's side
Out so far I never thought that I would get back
Nearly touched a star
I burnt my fingers tryin' to hold it
It's impossible I should have known it
You suddenly find you're standing
Looking over the edge of time
You can't remember handling
Situations and nursery rhymes
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Oh lead me back to sanity's side
I wanna go back to sanity's side
Looking over the edge of time
You can't remember handling
Situations and nursery rhymes
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Lead me back to sanity's side
I've been a few places darling
Experimented and looked around
It's time I was returning
Get my feet back on solid ground
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Lead me back to sanity's side
Out so far I never thought that I would get back
Nearly touched a star
I burnt my fingers tryin' to hold it
It's impossible I should have known it
You suddenly find you're standing
Looking over the edge of time
You can't remember handling
Situations and nursery rhymes
Carry me gently 'cross the water
Find me a place where I can hide
Blow me breezes never never faulter
Lead me back to sanity's side
Oh lead me back to sanity's side
I wanna go back to sanity's side
