Overhead the albatross

Hangs motionless upon the air

nd deep beneath the rolling waves

In labyrinths of coral caves

The echo of a distant time

omes willowing across the sand

nd everything is green and submarine

nd no-one showed us to the land

nd no-one knows the wheres or whys

ut something stirs and something tries

nd starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street

y chance two separate glances meet

nd I am you and what I see is me

nd do I take you by the hand

nd lead you through the land

nd help me understand the best I can

nd no-one calls us to move on

nd no-one forces down our eyes

nd no-one speaks and no-one tries

nd no-one flies around the sun

loudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes

Inviting and inciting me to rise

nd through the window in the wall

ome streaming in on sunlight wings

million bright ambassadors of morning

nd no-one sings me lullabies

nd no-one makes me close my eyes

So I throw the windows wide

nd call to you across the sky
