Beyond

Out here at the edge of town, I saw her

Alone on the water

I watched from the ridge as the trains past under

My eyes full of wonder

Here I could see

Lakes of fire

As she called to me

And I could see beyond the ordinary

Lost to me, in every fading memory

Here under the bridge, her eyes looked younger

An absence of colour

The sound of her voice, lost in thunder

My heart full of hunger

Here I could see

Lakes of fire

As she whispered to me

And I could see beyond the ordinary

Lost to me, in every fading memory

Out into the dark I stared

Out here at the edge of the world

I made a promise, to never grow up and forget

All the days, here when I was so young

When I could see beyond the ordinary

Lost to me
