There’s a voice I can hear.
As it moves ever closer, I am near.
His face is the face of a friend.
There’s no need to pretend.
No more struggle to bear.
No more needing to care.
He has the face of a friend.
There’s no need to pretend.
Come and capture me and take me away.
We fly on over the sea.
The wind is rushing with no words to be said.
With only a new land to see.
With wild horses and fields made of grain.
Gentle elders escape from the rain.
While children all dance and they run.
Over the moon and under the sun.
Under the sun.
Under the sun.
Under the sun.
Under the sun.
