[00:24.756] Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young
[00:31.269] In a world of magnets and miracles
[00:37.221] Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary
[00:43.237] The ringing of the division bell had begun
[00:49.426] Along the long road and on down to the causeway
[00:55.874] Do they still meet there by the cut
[01:02.020] There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps
[01:07.648] Running before time took our dreams away
[01:14.247] Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground
[01:19.875] To a life consumed by slow decay
[01:25.072] The grass was greener
[01:31.154] The light was brighter
[01:36.911] With friends surrounded
[01:43.100] The nights of wonder
[01:50.648] Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
[01:56.018] To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
[02:02.487] Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
[02:08.159] Dragged by the force of some inner tide
[02:14.844] but the highest altitude with flag unfurled
[02:20.882] We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world
[03:25.813] Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
[03:30.945] There's a hunger still unsatisfied
[03:37.630] Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
[03:43.215] though down this road we've been so many times
[03:48.456] The grass was greener
[03:54.472] The light was brighter
[04:00.402] With friends surrounded
[04:06.419] The nights of wonder
[04:12.349] With friends surrounded
[04:18.236] The dawn mist glowing
[04:24.188] The water flowing
[04:30.054] The endless river
[04:35.855] Forever and ever
[05:22.025] The grass was greener
[05:28.084] The light was brighter
[05:33.734] The taste was sweeter
[05:39.751] The nights of wonder
[05:45.595] With friends surrounded
[05:51.288] The dawn mist glowing
[05:57.132] The water flowing
[06:02.803] The endless river
[06:08.604] Forever and ever
