Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves The echo of a distant time comes billowing across the sand And everything is green, the sun beneath And no one showed us to the land And no one knows the where's or the why's But something stares and something tries And starts to climb towards the land
Strangers passing in the street by chance to separate closes 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 the dawn And no one forces down our eyes And no one speaks and no one tries No one flies around the sun
Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes Inviting and insighting 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 So I throw the windows wide And crawl to you across the sky
