Eye to the Telescope

They say the general public is getting older
And all the children now far beyond their time
The behaviour of young ladies these days
Is nothing but a crime
Eye to the telescope, tears in the eye
Heart in the mouth and head in the sky

Perhaps it's wishful thinking, and I'm a dreamer
To find a way to make you break into a laugh
We're really not that different from a distance looking back
Eye to the telescope, dreams in the glass
Eye in the mouth and stars in the black
In the black
