The Ocean Beyond The Sea
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's an ocean beyond the sea
That holds elixir for all who grieve
Only the shipwrecked could ever find it
By the ocean beyond the sea
In the forest beyond the trees
There sings a songbird who's been released
And the fowler could never find her
By the ocean beyond the sea
There's a valley above thе sky
Above the reachеs of humankind
And their towers could never find it
By the ocean beyond the sea
Beyond the scarecrows
Beyond the temples
Beyond the meadows
I heard a whisper
As soft as iron
As safe as lions
By the ocean beyond the sea
There's a highway beyond the road
Beyond where power is bought and sold
And the rich man could never find it
By the ocean beyond the sea
Beyond the tyrant
Beyond the sirens
Beyond the silence
I heard a whisper
As soft as thunder
As cold as fire
By the ocean beyond the sea
