So The Story Goes Lyrics - I Say I Say I Say - Erasure

I close my eyes 

To the sound of the sky and I see 

Birds in the trees in pastures green 

Nothing to do 

With the time or the place I perceive 

The rush of the sea beneath my feet 

Such a lovely world 

Oh so magical 

Precious like a pearl 

Wrapped up in a shell 

Build your house of stone 

On a bed of sand 

Time and tide will rise 

Washing through your hands

Hear your heart 

See the love 

Feel the soul lift up 

Hear your heart 

See the love 

Feel the soul lift up 

I lift my eyes 

To the sound in the sky and I hear it 

A voice on the breeze is so serene 

Nothing to do 

With the time or the place but I feel it 

Like dust on the moon beneath my feet

Such a lovely world 

Oh so magical 

So the story goes 

Sing the madrigal 

What a lovely world 

Waxing lyrical 

See the lies unfold 

Hear the miracle 

So the story goes... 

The lies and the miracle unfold 

Fresh like a pearl 

wrapped in a shell 

Build your house of stone on a bed of sand 

Time and tide will rise 

To wash tru' your hands 

Feel your soul lift up 

Hear your heart, see the love 

Feel your soul lift up 

I lift my eyes to the sound in the sky 

And I hear it 

A voice in the breeze, so serene
