Can you hear the birds singing
'Cause it's such a beautiful day
I would like you to notice
The complex nature of the birds
Because they sing the melodies
That nature gives us
Each and every day
Sing me a song
Make me belong
Come over there
Answer my prayer
To belong
With a song
In my heart each day
Go thru the thing
Make my bell ding
Give me your ring
Teach me to sing
We belong
With a song
In our heart each day

It's midnight in our town
Our visitors have gone
Onto the still black road
They're going
Now the stars gaze past
The moon around our city
Full of people either
Awake or sleeping
Now the sun will go through gravity and science
And what there is is a night to feel love
Think of love
Now the star of the day glows
It's daylight in our house
Comes into our door
There's beauty in the form of
My couch
I find it comforting
Our environment
Contentness is welcome to me
My happiness reborn
From the little dawn
Of the Earth and Sky
Above me
Now the Sun falls down
Through gravity and science
And what there is is a night to feel love
Think of love
Now the stars of the night glow
Daytime and nighttime go
Daytime and nighttime know
It's twilight in our town
Jewel city found
At the end of a treasure hunt
Now the neon lights
Fill the place with colour
A city full of cars and busses
Jewel city founded
Community construction
And what there is
Is symbol of dove
After life before
Another civilisation
And what we don't need
Is a nuclear war
Think of lore
Now the commanders applaud
Now the wood pigeon calls
Jewel city never falls

There's a wave
Going out to sea
Not knowing where to go to
It hasn't got a home
In this wave
There is only me
Not knowing where to go to
I therefore ever roam
In this wave
There is only one idea
To make what is further near
And near what is further still
Will you come to be ever by my side
And live in a changing tide
And be where the sun goes down
And hope that the moon comes out
Yes it will
And it's coming from in me
There's a tree
Growing on a bank
It's reaching all of it's branches
Up into the air
And the leaves
Rustle in the wind
Singing songs to the ocean
Speaking of the shore
Then a bird
With wings heavy from it's flight
Heard stories in the night
And lifts into the air
I have come
To see what a friend can be
And tell you of things I've seen
And make in you my home
A tree shouldn't be alone
I am here everything is a changing
And it's coming from in me
