lyrics

I saw an island rise into the sea, slowly and quietly
But then a mountain grew into the sky, what a thing to be distracted by
So the island rose under the moon, but the sun came up and it disappeared
too soon

What I see is what I see
I still believe in mysteries
And what I know is when you have so far to go
You get lost sometimes, so let's get lost tonight

Besides, someday we're gonna die, and we'll let our bodies float out with the tide
To the island rose under the moon, where our eulogies are the screaming of the loons

I believe in a little more
The things that I've seen before make me believe in a little more
