It was an |
|
April morning when they told us we should go |
|
As I turn to you, you smiled at me |
|
How could we say no? |
|
With all the fun to have, to live the dreams we always had |
|
Oh, the songs to sing, when we at last return again |
|
Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know |
|
Below the streets that steam and hiss, |
|
The devil's in his hole |
|
Oh to sail away, |
|
To sandy lands and other days |
|
Oh to touch the dream, |
|
Hides inside and never seen. |
|
Into the sun the south the north, at last the birds have flown |
|
The shackles of commitment fell, |
|
In pieces on the ground |
|
Oh to ride the wind, |
|
To tread the air above the din |
|
Oh to laugh aloud, |
|
Dancing as we fought the crowd |
|
To seek the man whose pointing hand, |
|
The giant step unfolds |
|
With guidance from the curving path, |
|
That churns up into stone |
|
If one bell should ring, in celebration for a king |
|
So fast the heart should beat, |
|
As proud the head with heavy feet. |
|
Days went by when you and |
|
I, bathed in eternal summers glow |
|
As far away and distant, |
|
Our mutual child did grow |
|
Oh the sweet refrain, |
|
Soothes the soul and calms the pain |
|
Oh Albion remains, sleeping now to rise again |
|
Wandering & wandering, |
|
What place to rest the search |
|
The mighty arms of |
|
Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth |
|
The mighty arms of |
|
Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth |
|
From the earth... |
|
I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way (X2) |
|
Oh the mighty arms of |
|
Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth. |
