Overhead the albatross 
Hangs motionless upon the air 
And deep beneath the rolling waves 
In labyrinths of coral caves 
An echo of a distant time 
Comes willowing across the sand 
And everything is green and submarine 
And no one showed us to the land 
And no one knows the where's or why's 
Something stirs and something tries 
And starts to climb toward the light 
Strangers passing in the street 
By chance two separate glances meet 
And I am you and what I see is me 
And do I take you by the hand 
And lead you through the land 
And help me understand 
The best I can 
And no one calls us to move on 
And no one forces down our eyes 
No one speaks and no one tries 
No one flies around the sun 
Cloundless everyday you fall 
Upon my waking eyes 
Inviting and inciting me 
To rise 
And through the window in the wall 
Come streaming in on sunlight wings 
A million bright ambassadors of morning 
And no one sings me lulabyes 
No one makes me close my eyes 
So I throw the windows wide 
And call to you across the sky
