We thought our lives were meant to last We thought bad dreams were in the past We thought forever was eternity
And if we, we try together we can climb The highest mountains any time We'll live forever and eternally
Cause I can see stars taking cover Stand by, I can see birds start to hover Stand by, don't forget nature's our mother Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
I can see water is breaking Stand by, I can see people forsaking Stand by, don't forget nature is shaking Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
The world is moving towards the end The higher powers won't defend Our lonely planet, a mark in history
Good save me, the trees that swung in summer sun The children played their games for fun I thought they'd live to see eternity
Cause I can see stars taking cover Stand by, I can see birds start to hover Stand by, don't forget nature's our mother Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
I can see water is breaking Stand by, I can see people forsaking Stand by, don't forget nature is shaking Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
We can do anything, anytime Let's heal the wounds now
Cause I can see stars taking cover Stand by, I can see birds start to hover Stand by, don't forget nature's our mother Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
I can see water is breaking Stand by, I can see people forsaking Stand by, don't forget nature is shaking Stand by, raised by the sand, stand, stand
