Lyrics
In a dream state, an absolute state of perfect bliss
Whatever I've done to get here I'll wanna do it again
Electric sunshine beating on me, so I break a sweat
With such elation pouring from me I'm out of my head
Never had I thought that I could conjur up such perfect peace
I lived a thousand lives to get here
So I'm gonna damn well stay here
And feel the breeze on my body and
Open my eyes to the orange skies, it
Feels so lovely in this Cosmic Country
See the vast and marvelous utopia smiling for you
A fruitful and elusive landscape of never ending truth
Oh never in your wildest dreams could you have would up here
It's so indelibly eclectic - it's psychedelic and electric
And feel the breeze on your body and
Open my eyes to the orange skies, it
Feels so lovely in this Cosmic Country
The tide has changed I can feel the earth's breath
Down beneath my feet
So hard to believe that I never noticed
It's all around me
I'm beautiful, I'm elated, and I'm sober and free
A handsome technicolor landscape smiling for me
We thank our lucky stars we've come this far
There a StrangeCloud hanging in the sky
So we breathe a collective sigh
And feel the breeze on ou bodies and
Open my eyes to the orange skies, it
Feels so lovely in this Cosmic Country
You're in the Cosmic Country
