The Great Electric Experiment Is Over lyrics

I can see the grass is growing on the streets I knew

And through the trees.

I can see the sun is shining on the sea

And the ruins of the city are in flower now,

And the great electric experiment is over, over now.

The dusty grey is changing into golden now,

Beneath the rain

That came last night like dew upon the ground.

And the ruins of the city rain with bird sweet song,

And the great electric experiment is over, over now.

And far along the shore a woman stands beside a man.

In her heart she hides no questions for the dawn,

For the answers flow between them

As she gently holds his hand,

And the sky shudders sweetly, and the day is born.

The ticking of the clocks has turned to silence now,

Beneath the sun,

That softly draws the flowers from the ground.

And the crying of the child is also laughter now,

And the great electric experiment is over, over now.

And far along the shore a woman walks beside a man.

In her heart she hides no questions for the sky,

For the answers flow between them

As he gently holds her hand.

And the ocean thunders proudly, and the sea birds cry.

I can see the grass is growing on the streets I knew

And through the trees.

I can see the sun is shining on the sea

And the ruins of the city are in flower now,

And the great electric experiment is over, over now.
