Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Endless distance
Wildlife and stars
Blanket the night
You lyin' beside me, darling
Eyes open wide
[Verse 2]
While the wide arc of the globe is turning
We feel it moving through the dark
Hear the hills scrape the sky
And our eyes fill with the falling sparks
[Verse 3]
Then we know that we're alive
If we weren't sure before
I reach for you by my side and soar
[Verse 4]
Revolution Earth
On gliding fireworks
Revolution Earth
Rolling under us
The world is turning on gliding fireworks
You beside me
Revolution Earth
[Verse 5]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
[Verse 6]
Frost on the jungle vine
Melting in sunshine (In summer shine)
Snow on the mountain tops
Piling high in loving cups
[Verse 7]
Then we know that we're alive
If we weren't sure before
I reach for you by my side and soar
[Verse 8]
Revolution Earth
On gliding fireworks
Revolution Earth
Rolling under us
High above on gliding fireworks
You beside me
Revolution Earth
[Verse 9]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
[Verse 10]
Woo
[Verse 11]
You flyin' beside me, darling
Eyes open wide (Eyes open wide)
On a voyage between dusk and dawn
Space and time
[Verse 12]
Then we know that we're alive
If we weren't sure before
I reach for you by my side and soar
[Verse 13]
Revolution Earth
On gliding fireworks
Revolution Earth
Rolling under us
The world is turning on gliding fireworks
You beside me
Revolution
[Verse 14]
Revolution Earth
On gliding fireworks
Revolution Earth
Rolling under us
High above on gliding fireworks
You beside me
Revolution Earth
[Verse 15]
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
