Gotta see the sun before you go,
Gotta see the mountains shine
Before you go back to the ones you know
Let me show you this place of mine
Gotta see the sun hang so high
A thousand feet above the sea
Sit on the cliffs, and watch the seagulls
Fly above you and me
So just lie back, and let the waters close above your eyes
Just lie back, and let the waters close above your eyes
Yes just lie back, and let the seaweed tangle up your mind
Coz the sky’s alight, the hills are filled with rain
And it’s alright
Gotta see the sun before you go,
Gotta see the mountains shine
Before you go back to the ones you know
Let me show you this place of mine
Gotta see the sun hang so high
A thousand feet above the sea
Sit on the cliffs, and watch the seagulls
Fly above you and me
So just lie back, and let the waters close above your eyes
Just lie back, and let the waters close above your eyes
Yes just lie back, and let the seaweed tangle up your mind
Coz the sky’s alight, the hills are filled with rain
And it’s alright
