Hangs G#mmotionless upon the air
And F#mdeep beneath the rolling waves
In G#labyrinths of coral caves
The C#mecho of a distant time
Comes G#mwillowing across the sand
And F#meverything is green and submarineG#

And C#no-one showed us to the land
And G#no-one knows the wheres or whys
But F#msomething stirs and something tries
And G#starts to climb Atowards the light

C#mStrangers passing in the street
By G#mchance two separate glances meet
And F#mI am you and what I see is G#me
And C#mdo I take you by the hand
And G#mlead you through the land
And F#mhelp me understand the best I G#can

And G#no-one forces down our eyes
And F#mno-one speaks and no-one tries
And G#no-one flies aAround the sun
