Lyrics for Beneath The Waves

The water breaks the golden sunrays Silver dances on the waves But a memory I often dream about the old days Playing hide and seek within the caves But a memory I still feel the rising tides embrace me Carrying me to a place unknown But a memory I remember all the love they gave me In this fluid world we call our home But a memory Beneath the waves we were invincible In a world without frontiers (World without walls) Beneath the waves we were inseparable In a world without walls Faces of cerulean oceans Mirroring stars and sable skies But a memory How I miss the scent of sweet emotions Of a world so pure, devoid of cries But a memory Beneath the waves we were unbeatable (In the silence of the sea) In a world without frontiers (World without walls) Beneath the waves we were untouchable (In a kingdom of the free) In a world without walls Beneath the waves we were invincible In the silence of the sea In a world without frontiers World without walls Beneath the waves we were inseparable In a kingdom of the free In a world without walls Face the facts: there is no way back! Arise! It's time to act! Face the facts: our future is black! Arise– we're on the wrong track! Face the facts: there is no way back! Arise! It's time to act! Face the facts: our future is black! Arise– we're on the wrong track! Face the facts: there is no way back! Arise! It's time to act! Face the facts: our future is black! Arise– we're on the wrong track! Water breaks golden sunrays Silver dances on the waves But a memory I often dream about the old days Playing hide and seek within the caves But a memory Beneath the waves we were unbeatable! In the silence of the sea! In a world without frontiers! World without walls! Beneath the waves we were untouchable! In a kingdom of the free! In a world without walls! World without walls! Beneath the waves we were invincible! In the silence of the sea! In a world without frontiers! Beneath the waves we were inseparable! In our kingdom of the free! In a world without walls!
