Beyond the horizon of the place

we lived when we were young

In a world of mas and miracles

Our thoughts strayed constantly

and without boundary

The ringing of the division bell had begun

Along the Long Road and on down

the Causeway

Do they still meet there by the Cut

There was a ragged band

that followed our footsteps

Running before time took our dreams away

Leaving the myriad small creatures trying

to tie us to the ground

To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener

The light was brighter

With friends surrounded

The nights of wonder

Looking beyond the embers

of bridges glowing behind us

To a glimpse of how green

it was on the other side

Steps taken forwards

but sleepwalking back again

Dragged by force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfurled

We reached the dizzy heights of

that dreamed of world

Encumbered forever by desire and ambition

There's a hunger still unsatisfied

Though down this road

we've been so many times

The grass was greener

The light was brighter

The taste was sweeter

The nights of wonder

With friends surrounded

The dawn mist growing

The water flowing

The endless river

Forever and ever
