Echoes - Pink Floyd
Lyrics by:Roger Waters/David Gilmour/Richard Wright/Nick Mason
Composed by:Roger Waters/David Gilmour/Richard Wright/Nick Mason
Produced by:Pink Floyd
David Gilmour:
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine
Richard Wright:
And no one showed us to the land
And no one knows the where's or why's
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light
David Gilmour:
Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can
Richard Wright:
And no one calls us to move on
And no one forces down our eyes
No one speaks and no one tries
No one flies around the sun
David Gilmour:
Cloudless every day you fall
Upon my waking eyes
Inviting and inciting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning
Richard Wright:
And no one sings me lullabies
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky
