(Intro) x2
(Verse Riff 1) x2

(Verse Riff 1)
Let?s get away, you say
Find a better place
(Verse Riff 1)
Miles and miles away
From the city?s race
(Verse Riff 2)
Look around for someone
Lying in the sunshine
Marking time
Hear the sighs
Close your eyes
(Verse Riff 1)
Ba dapa doo da
Da dapa doo da doe
(Post-Verse Lead)

Stepping from cloud to cloud
Passing years of light
Visit the frosty start
In the backward flight
Soaring realms of visions
Never mind the meaning
Hidden there
Moving fast
It won?t last

Ba dapa doo da
Da dapa doo da doe

Time passes all too soon
How it rushes by
Now a thousand moons
Are about to die
No time to reflect on
What the time was spent on
Nothing left
But await
Dreamer?s fate

Ba dapa doo da
Da dapa doo da doe

Bridge:
(C minorCm section of Intro) x4
(Intro Riff)
Strange visions pass me by
(G minorGm Bridge Riff)
Winging swiftly close inside
(Intro Riff) (Play last C minorCm part twice.)
Over the water

(Play the bridge again with ?Ahh...?)

Swirling, the waters
Rise up above my head
Gone are the curling mists
How they all have fled
Look, the door is open
Step into the space
Provided there
Die oo da
Die oo da

Ba dapa doo da
Da dapa doo da doe

(End with C minorCm part of Intro x4 and then just a C majorC on A-3)
