"Jubilee"

The fruits you bear
As plain as the clothes you wear
An emblem for all to see
Just like leaves on a lively tree

As you're reaching to the sky
And I'm left to wonder why
If the roots growing underneath
Were meant to reach anything

Is your fantasy
Grounded in reality?

Jubilee, oh oh, jubilee
Is your joy really intended
For you or for me
Jubilee, oh oh, jubilee
You're smiling at the thought of it
But not at me

Can you hear me from way up there?
As my words hang in the air
Caught up in the sea of clouds
You've made as a kingdom now

With little to no response
You tell me to join along
But if this is the place it leads
Then I don't want anything

Jubilee, oh oh, jubilee
Is your joy really intended
For you or for me
Jubilee, oh oh, jubilee
You're smiling at the thought of it
But not at me

Your eyes
Looking at the stars
Love is so close
But you're oh so far
Your eyes
Looking at the stars
Love can hear
Both the near and far
