Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, in the meadow where we lie
Back in spring of '79
There were no rules to feel sublime
Let's tread down the path
We just slept to the radio
Gentle as my heart beats now
Turn up the fuse all over again
My friends
[Verse 2]
Just take me away
Be my, be my DNA
Don't wanna fade away
Rewind, there's no yesterday
It's our discovery
Dreamtime, it's our special place
Let's keep each other awake
Our hearts, now they beat the same
[Verse 3]
There is a thread that runs along
The seam of all the paths we've crossed
A colored wheel that spins around
We fall into one
The price of getting setting suns
Runnin' to the beat of the drum
We are the creatures, rays and larks
Relax
[Verse 4]
(Just take me away)
Be my, be my DNA
Don't wanna fade away
Rewind, there's no yesterday
It's our discovery
Dreamtime, it's our special place
Let's keep each other awake
Our hearts, now they beat the same
[Verse 5]
Take me away, so far away no one will find us
On our own island
Just out of choice, the dreamer had fought
The battleship away, it's over the horizon
Voices inside of us that guide us on
Guiding us on (Can't you hear us calling you?)
(Can't you hear us calling you?)
(Can't you hear us calling you?)
[Verse 6]
Be my, be my DNA
Don't wanna fade away
Rewind, there's no yesterday
It's our discovery
Dreamtime, it's our special place
Let's keep each other awake
Our hearts, now they beat the same
