from higher spires to the rounded ground, and flying all the while over all via metallic wings is you, though you may perhaps just be locked into a chair whilst these sensations are plugged into your head, and Michael Palin peers through a fish eye lens at you, pretending to be your friend... that's when i get out my coloringbook and start doodling - a bit of sky, a bit of grass, a waxen riverbank flowing through the scenes awesome music, my friend
Hey Coloring Book, Been a while just wondering if you could give my new song 800 miles a listen,and please let me know when your new album is finished.
