He had his whole life in front of him
But he couldn't sleep, no he couldn't sleep
So she had this dream of a canopy
With cosmical scenes; that's all that he needs
Then she told everyone
The things that she had done
How she had saved his life, yeah
But when they left him all alone
He got on the phone
And started telling everybody
And he said
He had this weird way of telling it
A colorful lie, that was what they all liked
But she had to clear up a little bit
So parts of it changed, still of it strange
She took him to the place
That's spinning out in space
It was beauty, it was heartache
But he couldn't see the ground
So he started flipping out
And now he's telling everybody
And he said
She is all that he needs and it's right there in front of him
He had his whole life in front of him
