There was a funnel in the clouds,
babe I saw the writing on the wall
You and I were running on around, babe
And neither one of us could cope
I dug a tunnel underground,
babe I made a ceiling and a wall
I told you, don't you make a sound, babe
And hoped the ceiling wouldn't fall
It was cosy down there,
we made friends with the worms
And I re member you said you felt safe
We kept on diggin' till the sound, babe
Of the world above was far away
And even though there
was no one else around,
babe
We still found lots of stuff to say
We kept on digging through the ground,
babe
We found ourselves along the way
And I remember somewhere
in the ground, babe
We remembered how to pray
God in his infinite mercy and
wisdom gave us a baby girl
And then one day he told
us it was okay to go back
We crawled back up towards the ground,
babe
Under e -elbows, hands and knees
We all stuck firm and true around,
babe
Of this small mercy we were pleased
We poked our heads above the ground,
babe
The light reduced us above to tears
We were the only ones around, babe
Beneath the music of the spheres
Is it okay to say we lived
happily ever after?
Say we lived happily ever after.
