[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
her side
Steps taken fo
rwards but sle
epwalking back
again
Dragged by the
force of some
sleeping tide
at a higher al
titude with fl
ag unfurled
We reached the
dizzy heights
of that dream
ed of world
Marching drums bit
(Nylon Strung guitar)

[Verse 4]
Encumbered for
ever by desire
and ambition
Theres a hunge
r still unsati
sfied
Our weary eyes
still stray t
o the horizon
Though down th
is road I've b
een so many ti
mes
[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
glowing
The water flow
ing
The endless ri
ver
Forever and ev
er
[Solo]
