[Verse]

            
Beyond the hor

           
izon of the pl

            
ace we lived w

              
hen we were yo

    
ung
              
In a world of 

           
magnets and mi

      
racles
            
Our thoughts s

           
trayed constan

             
tly and withou


t boundary
            
The ringing of

           
 the division 

             
bell had begun

              
Along the long

            
 road and on d


own the causew

ay
            
Do they still 

            
meet there by 

 
the cut.


[Verse 2]

            
There was a ra

           
gged band who 

            
followed in ou

                  
r footsteps
              
Running before

           
 times took ou

      
r dreams away
            
Leaving the my

           
riad small cre

             
atures trying 


to tieus to th

e ground
            
To a life cons

           
umed by slow d

             
ecay


[Chorus]

              
The grass was 

             
greener
              
The light was 

               
brighter
              
When friends s

            
urrounded
              
The nights of 

               
wonder



[Verse 3]

            
Looking beyond

           
 the embers of

            
 bridges glowi

                  
ng behind us
              
To a glimpse o

           
f how green it

      
 was on the ot

Steps taken fo

epwalking back


 again
            
Dragged by the

           
 force of some

             
 sleeping tide
              
at a higher al

            
titude with fl

We reached the

            
 dizzy heights

[Verse 4]

            
Encumbered for

           
ever by desire

                              
 and ambition
            
Theres a hunge

sfied
            
Our weary eyes

           
 still stray t

Though down th

[Chorus 2]

              
The grass was 

             
greener
              
The light was 

               
brighter
              
The taste was 

            
sweeter
              
The nights of 

               
wonder
              
With friends s

             
urrounded
              
The dawn mist
