what a beautiful face
i have found in this place
circling all 'round the sun

what a beautiful dream
could flash on the screen
blink of an eye, and be gone from me
soft and sweet
let me hold it close and keep it here
with me

oh one day we will die
and our ashes will fly
from the aeroplane over the sea

but for now we are young
let's lay in the sun
count every beautiful thing you can see
love to be
in the arms of all i'm keepin' here with me

mmm
what a curious life
we've found here tonight
music does sound from the street

there are lights in the clouds
anna's ghost all around
hear her voice as it's rolling and ringing through me
soft and sweet
how the notes all bend and reach above the trees

now how i remember you
how i would push my fingers through
your mouth to make those muscles move
made your voice so smooth and sweet

now we keep where we don't know
all secrets sleep in winter clothes
the one you loved so long ago
now he don't even know his name

what a beautiful face
i've found in this place
circling all 'round the sun

when we meet on a cloud
i'll be laughing out loud
laughing with everyone i see
can't believe
how strange it is to be anything at all
