Song playing in the boatyard as the last level of Holly White's computer game 'Leaving Biosphere 2'
lyrics
Sitting aimlessly, I saw a lady green
and lilac as the heather
She said, “I am the queen of the underneath,
I have no place in heaven
But I’m out to visit, to look for you
if you follow me, you’ll see what I can do
I’m awfully busy, I must go soon
But if you allow me, I’ll take you too
Step up start the to and froing
Take my hand and we’ll get going
The wind will take us where it’s blowing
Come on let’s sway
For seven years below the flowers
I will teach you all my powers
Years will pass as if they’re hours
Let’s get away
When you return from me
they’ll think that you have been
dreaming this ordeal
They’ll call it make believe
cos they don’t see
a dream made all that’s real
They know so surely
what’s real and not
I know when I'm dancing
all the world’s made up
Is our time finite
or infinite?
I know when I’m dancing
time is definite
Step up start the to and froing
Take my hand and we’ll be going
The wind will take us where it’s blowing
Come on let’s sway
For seven years below the flowers
I will teach you all my powers
Years will pass as if they’re hours
Let’s get away”
