There′s an ocean beyond the sea
That holds elixir for all who grieve
Only the shipwrecked could ever find itBy 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 the sky
Above the reaches 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
