_____
My huge heart among the stars one day
_____
And beyond the blue of the curtain into the blue I'll fly
_____
When the cannon woman turns to gold and silver
_____
Without passing through the station she'll catch the last train
_____
And in the faces of the spiteful and the proud my name will glitter
_____
At the gates of the night the day will stop
_____
A round of applause from the paying crowd will underline it
_____
And from the cannon's mouth a song will play
_____
And with my hands, love, I'll take you by the hands
_____
And without saying a word I'll carry you in my heart
_____
And I won't be afraid if I'm not beautiful like you say
_____
But we'll fly into the sky in flesh and bone, we won't come back
_____
Anymore, ooo ooo ooo ooo na na na na na
_____
And without hunger and without thirst
_____
And without wings and without a net we'll fly away
_____
So the cannon woman, that huge mystery, flew
_____
And all alone she set off toward a pitch-black sky
_____
Everybody shut their eyes at the exact moment she vanished
_____
Others swore and swore again they'd never been there
_____
And with my hands, love, I'll take you by the hands
_____
And without saying a word I'll carry you in my heart
_____
And I won't be afraid if I'm not as beautiful as you want
_____
But we'll fly into the sky in flesh and bone, we won't come back
_____
Anymore, ooo ooo ooo ooo na na na na na
_____
And without hunger and without thirst
_____
And without wings and without a net we'll fly away
