|
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air |
|
And deep beneath the rolling waves |
|
In labyinths of coral caves |
|
The echo of the distant tide |
|
Comes willowing across the sand |
|
And everything is green and submarine |
|
And no-one showed us to the land |
|
And no-one knows the wheres or whys |
|
But something stirs and something tries |
|
And starts to climb towards the light |
|
Strangers passing in the street |
|
By chance two separate glances meet |
|
And I am you and what i see is me |
|
And do i take you by the hand |
|
And lead you through the land |
|
And help me understand the best i can |
|
And no-one calls us to move on |
|
And no-one forces down our eyes |
|
And no-one speaks and no-one tries |
|
And no-one flies around the sun |
|
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes |
|
Inviting and inciting me to rise |
|
And through the window in the wall |
|
Come streaming in on sunlight wings |
|
A million bright ambassadors of morning |
|
And no-one sings me lullabies |
|
And no-one makes me close my eyes |
|
And so I throw the windows wide |
|
And call to you across the sky |
