lyrics

Melody fly like a seagull
Over a rhythm, over this 'C'
Enter the movement
Real and imagined
Listening together
Do we hear the same?

When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye

Turbulent times in our thinking
Growing is painful
Smiling through scars
Fear of indifference
Selfish or loving
I think it's a mixture
Well, it mixes in me

When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye

Trembling hearts mingle beatings
Our great adventure
Is living to love
Hurting and praying
Life and death weighing
Shallow and human
Touched by divine

When you look beneath the surface
You will find
More to this than meets the eye
