We look ahead for miles down our avenue of light We motor past the airport in the flatness of the night Its fairy beads reflected in the shining of your eye Can it be that there's so many That have been through this whole scene before? Staring at the ground, for I knew not what to do I turned full around and found myself in you The water looks so placid to deny that it's a threat Our weary faces smiling with the energy that's left Your flowing now has reached me and I feel I've got to stay There's no need for a reason We switched off our thinking hours ago Staring at the ground, for I knew not what to do I turned full around and found myself in you Still we're driving onward, moving steady as a plane Moonbug cars flash past us as we head the other way Across the dyke of worry to a Nederlander dream Now the morning opens slowly On what seems a very special day Staring at the ground, for I knew not what to do I turned full around and found myself in you
