Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
A billion words ago The sailors disappeared A story for the children To rock them back to sleep A million burning books Like torches in our hands A fabric of ideals To decorate our homes A thousand generations The soil on which we walk A mountain of mistakes For us to climb for pleasure A hundred clocks are ticking The line becomes a circle Spin the wheel of fortune Or learn to navigate A choir full of longing Will call our ships to port The countless lonely voices Like whispers in the dark A second of reflection can Take you to the moon The slightest hesitation can Bring you down in flames A single spark of passion Can change a man forever A moment in a lifetime Is all it takes to break him A fraction of a heartbeat Made us what we are A brother and a sister For better or for worse A billion words ago They sang a song of leaving An echo from the chorus Will call them back again A choir full of longing Tonight we light the fires We call our ships to port Tonight we walk on water And tomorrow we'll be gone
