I Heard It

I was driving down a lonely highway

As the sun went down

I heard a voice right beside me saying

Why don't you turn around?

Why don't you stop

Feel the wonder

And listen to the sound?

And I heard it

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

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 passion 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

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

A million souls scream in anguish

While others rest in sleep

Well I heard it

I heard it

I heard it

I heard it

Yeah, yeah

Well I heard it

I heard it

I heard it

I heard it
