I Heard It Letra

“Why don't you turn around?
Why don't you stop — feel the wonder,
Listen to the sound?”
Well — I heard it,
I heard it — I heard it.
Have you listened to the bell at midnight
On the still night air?
It sets you dreaming of the strangest journey
Across the Great Somewhere
Then you start the Brave Adventure,
Dreams without a care.
Well — I heard it,
I heard it — I heard it.

Like leaves borne on the wind
Our words will fade and die
Only to return
As new life, by and by.
The passions that we feel,
Like lovers wild and free,
Are footsteps on the sand
Holding back the mighty sea.

There's a place — a secret garden —
And when the day is done
We lie among the grass and flowers
Underneath the sun.
As we look up the sky is turning
But, with the Earth, we're one.
Well — I heard it,
I heard it — I heard it.

The passions that we feel,
Like lovers wild and free,
Are footsteps on the sand -
Holding back the mighty sea.
There's a voice — that calls us onwards,
Down the lonely street —
And when we tread the path no longer
The circle is complete.
The circle is complete.

A million souls scream in anguish
And others rest in sleep.
