Ayreon - Beneath the Waves: Beneath the Waves/Face the Facts/But a Memory.../Wor Lyrics

The water breaks the golden sun rays
Silver dances on the wave
But a memory...

I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory...

I still feel the rising tides embrace me
Carrying me to a place unknown
But a memory...

I remember all the love they gave me
In this fluid world we call our home
But a memory...

[Chorus]
Beneath the waves we were invincible
In a world without frontiers
Beneath the waves we were inseparable
In a world without walls

Faces of cerulean oceans
Mirroring stars and sable skies
But a memory...

How I miss the sense of sweet emotions
Of a world so pure, devoid of cries
Blind memory...

Beneath the waves we were unbeatable
In a world without frontiers
Beneath the waves we were untouchable
In a world without walls

[Chorus]

Face the facts, there is no way back
For eyes inside to act
Face the acts, our future is black
Our eyes were on the wrong track

Water breaks the golden sun rays
Silver dances on the wave
But a memory...

I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory...

[Chorus x2]
