When you lie down flat
On sand or grass
You watch the clouds
Go floating past

You can get the feeling
that you’re on a ferry
That you’re moving on something
Planetary

And the sun shines bright
So far away
It reveals all life
In the length of day

Sleeping, dreaming
Movements precise
Never to be
In the same place twice

It all revolves
Without fixed point
Across the range
Of endless sky
