Well I fell down from the tree of life Hit the branches on the way Way down to the root Found what's been bothering me And I'll tell you If you can hear above the din I just can't get back to where I've been
If I ever found all that I wanted I've travelled the world all the way round If you ever gave me all I ever wanted I'd travel the world all the way round
But I just can't get back to where I've been
Cos I know a place and I want to be there I read it in the poems on the way down There it lies The unchecked country Far beyond the spectacle of plains
What a beautiful dream These are beautiful dreams

What a beautiful dream These are beautiful dreams
