Solsbury Hill [Live] [Polish translation]

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill

I could see the city lights

And the wind was blowing, time stood still

Eagle flew out of the night

He was something to observe

When he came in close, I heard a voice

Standing stretching every nerve

Well, I had to listen, had no choice

Could not believe the information

Just had to trust imagination

My heart going boom, boom, boom

"Son," he said, "you can grab your things

They've come to take you home"

To keep in silence I resigned

My friends would think I was a nut

Turning water into wine

Open doors would soon be shut

And so I went from day to day

Although my life was in a rut

Until I thought of what I'd say

Which connection I should cut

I was feeling part of the scenery

I walked right out of the machinery

My heart going boom, boom, boom

"Son," he said, "you can grab your things

They've come to take you home"

When illusion spin her net

I'm never where I wanna be

Liberty she pirouette

When I think that I am free

Watched by empty silhouettes

Who close their eyes, but still can see

No one taught them etiquette

I will show another me

Today I don't need a replacement

I'll tell them what the smile on my face meant

My heart going boom, boom, boom

"Hey," I said, "you can keep my things

They've come to take me home"
