We are not the first ones who have lived here
City built on city through the ages
Strengthened by technology, we conquer to survive
But like a dream it could all fade away
Now the seventh decade is behind us
Time to face the challenge of the Eighties
Will the nations find a peace, conforming to survive
Or like a dream will it all fade away
Like the ancient mariners before
Sailed in wooden ships around the world
We can travel farther in a day
Can we see the reason why we live
Like the sage who studied all the stars
Gazing through a hollow wooden glass
We see far but cannot reach the end
Can we find the reason why...
I am not the dreamer, I'm a dream
Held inside a frail human shell
I would give my heart to understand
Can you see the reason why we live
