A little boy on his knees in the hall Playing marbles, his own game of football A quiet girl in a corner of the lounge Reading, and waiting for free space Where's the other one, who had the cheeky grin He went up a tree, into thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air A young man with adventure in his eyes Straining the leash, out at the limit A woman with a changing life in mind Cut down, both in a cruel way Where're those other ones, who shared the carefree smile They have gone to ground, into thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air A dream of a better world lay there On the slope, under the tea tree Rock pools in the bay of clarity Sold off, in the after-shock Where's the central one, so warm and wise Truly vulnerable, went to thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air Vanished into thin air, into thin air |
