It's Dover the horizon
CVoices inside of us are Dguiding us on (guiding us on)
EmCan't you hear us Bmcalling you?
EmCan't you hear us Bmcalling you?

Oh in the meadow where we lie

Back in spring of '79

There were no rules to feel sublime

Lets trek down the path

There is a thread that runs along

The seam of all the paths we've crossed

A colour wheel that spins around

Weaved all into one

The price of getting setting suns

We're running to the beat of the drum

So far away

No one will find us

On our own island

Just out of choice

The dreamer fought the battleship away

It's over the horizon

Voices inside of us are guiding us on (guiding us on)

Can't you hear us calling you?
