[00:36.728]Some of them were dreamers
[00:41.077]And some of them were fools
[00:45.839]Who were making plans and thinking of the future
[00:53.349]With the energy of the innocent
[00:58.302]They were gathering the tools
[01:03.530]They would need to make their journey back to nature
[01:12.435]While the sand slipped through the opening
[01:16.631]And their hands reached for the golden ring
[01:21.273]With their hearts they turned to each other's heart for refuge
[01:30.837]In the troubled years that came before the deluge
[01:40.731]Some of them knew pleasure
[01:44.634]And some of them knew pain
[01:48.538]And for some of them it was only the moment that mattered
[01:57.225]And on the brave and crazy wings of youth
[02:01.991]They went flying around in the rain
[02:06.413]And their feathers once so fine grew torn and tattered
[02:15.054]And in the end they traded their tired wings
[02:19.707]For the resignation that living brings
[02:24.207]And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow
[02:28.977]For the glitter and the rouge
[02:33.050]And in the moment they were swept before the deluge
[02:41.138]Now let the music keep our spirits high
[02:50.267]And let the buildings keep our children dry
[02:56.515]Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by
[03:03.847]By and by
[03:08.517]When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky
[03:18.816]Some of them were angry
[03:22.287]At the way the earth was abused
[03:26.753]By the men who learned how to forge her beauty into power
[03:35.807]And they struggled to protect her from them
[03:39.698]Only to be confused
[03:44.417]By the magnitude of her fury in the final hour
[03:52.717]And when the sand was gone and the time arrived
[03:57.444]In the naked dawn only a few survived
[04:02.122]And in attempts to understand a thing so simple and so huge
[04:10.917]Believed that they were meant to live after the deluge
[04:18.782]Now let the music keep our spirits high
[04:27.806]And let the buildings keep our children dry
[04:34.157]Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by
[04:41.768]By and by
[04:46.348]When the light that's lost within us reaches the sky
