It was a long, long time ago, in the summertime I was out in the forest alone, right around midnight Saw a flickering light in the trees heard the laugh of a child in the breeze then a girl with the moon in her eye appeared, and she blew my mind We dove into the clearest streams We flew high up into clouded dreams I chased green pixie all over the world Never gonna think about another girl She laughed and said catch me if you can Never been in the arms of a mortal man I chased green pixie all over the world Never gonna think about another girl She smiled at me, and time stood still I fell under the charm of her magic spell
I followed her into a secret grove down where the mysteries lie and the mushroom grows She told me let your mind clear, forget where you've been close your eyes, release your tears, and we'll start again nothing in this world is quite as it appears we are in dreamtime, there's no dying here When I finally awoke I was alone, of her there was no sign now I search the world for that elusive girl who blew my mind And through I try, I can't find the way And I know deep down inside it'll never be the same There's nothing left to do, there's nothing to say it's all gone wrong since she went away
