The children of the summers end gathered in the dampened grass We played our songs and felt the London sky resting on our hands It was Gods land It was ragged and naive It was Heaven Touch, we touched the very soul of holding each and every life We claimed the very source of joy ran through It didnt, but it seemed that way I kissed a lot of people that day Oh, to capture just one drop of all the ecstasy that swept that afternoon To paint that love upon a white balloon And fly it from the toppest top of all the tops that man has pushed beyond his brain Satori must be something just the same We scanned the skies with rainbow eyes and saw machines of every shape and size We talked with tall Venusians passing through And Peter tried to climb aboard but the Captain shook his head and away they soared Climbing through the ivory vibrant cloud Someone passed some bliss among the crowd and we walked back to the road, unchained The Sun Machine is coming down, and were gonna have a party

PITT 25th., September 1967 Dear Sandra, When I called in this, my managers office, a few moments ago I was handed my very first American fan letter - and it was from you. I was so pleased that I had to sit down and type an immediate reply, even though Ken is shouting at me to get on with a script he badly needs. That can wiat . Ive been waiting for some reaction to the album from American listeners. There were reviews in Billboard and Cash Box, but they were by professional critics and they rarely reflect the opinions of the public. The critics were very flattering however. They even liked the single Love You Till Tuesday. Ive got a copy of the American album and theyve printed the picture a little yellow. Im really not that blond. I think the picture on the back is more me. Hope you like those enclosed. In answer to your questions, my real name is David Jones and I dont have to tell you why I changed it. Nobodys going to make a monkey out of you said my manager. My birthday is January 8th and I guess Im 510. There is a Fan Club here in England, but if things go well in the States then well have one there I suppose. Its a little early to even think about it. I hope one day to get to America. My manager tells me lots about it as he has been there many times with other acts he manages. I was watching an old film on TV the other night called No Down Payment a great film, but rather depressing if it is a true reflection of The American Way Of Life. However, shortly after that they showed a documentary about Robert Frost the American poet, filmed mainly at his home in Vermont, and that evened the score. I am sure that that is nearer the real America. I made my first movie last week. Just a fifteen minutes short, but it gave me some good experience for a full length deal I have starting in January. Thankyou for being so kind as to write to me and do please write again and let me know some more about yourself. Yours sincerely, David Bowie
