CmBeyond the horiCm7zon of the placAbe we lived when we were young Cm
In a world of mCm7agnets and miracles Ab
CmOur thoughts strayed consCm7tantly and withoutAb boundary
CmThe ringing of the divCm7ision bell had begun Ab
Along the long Bbroad and on dowG7n the causeway
AbDo they still meBbet there by theG7 cut.
There was a ragged band who followed in our footsteps
Running before times took our dreams away
Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tieus to the ground
To a life consumed by slow decay
AbThe grass was greCmener Gm Ab
BbThe light was brightCmer Eb Fm
AbWhen friends surrCmoundedGm Ab
BbThe nights of wondCmer Eb Fm
Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us
To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side
Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again
Dragged by the force of some sleeping tide
at a higher altitude with flag unfurled
We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
Theres a hunger still unsatisfied
Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
Though down this road I've been so many times
The grass was greener
The light was brighter
The taste was sweeter
The nights of wonder
With friends surrounded
The dawn mist glowing
The water flowing
The endless river
Forever and ever...
