The ceiling had something mysterious to me
It seemed to fall down like fruit from a tree
There were things coming out, a horse, a knight,
Men, women, children, all lost in a fight
A rose, a sword, a snake, a shield
What was hidden so long was now all revealed
A goddess, an angel, a star, a child
I lay on the floor, froze the moment for a while

How many eyes had seen this before
Let's go to Greece and discover old histories
How many eyes had seen this before
How many eyes have felt this joy
The things in my head opened up to me
The things in my head, the things in my head

The ceiling had something mysterious to me
There were wheels, not of fortune, and more
Things to see
Perhaps I had drunk too much gin
'Cause my eyes didn't know where exactly to begin
The more I drank, the sharper they got
Suppose it's quite normal that I saw a lot
The mermaid's fingers gently on his head
Like a girl so in love with the boy she just met
Let's go to Greece and discover old histories

How many eyes had seen this before
How many eyes have felt this joy
The things in my head opened up to me
The things in my head, the things in my head
How many eyes had seen this before
How many eyes have felt this joy
The things in my head opened up to me
The things in my head, the things in my head
The things in my head, the things in my head
Are driving me mad...
