Beyond and Before Lyrics
[Intro]
Ahh, ahh, ahh
Too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo-doo
Too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo-doo
Too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo-doo
Too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too-doo, too
[Verse 1]
Sparkling trees of silver foam
Cast shadows soft in winter home
Swaying branches breaking sound
Lonely forest trembling ground
[Verse 2]
Masquerading leaves of blue
Run circles round the morning dew
Patterns understood by you
Reaching out beyond and before
[Verse 3]
Time like gold dust brings mind down
To levels hidden underground
Say a few words to the wind
That's all that's left of winter's friend
[Chorus]
Reaching the snow in the days of the cold
Casting a spell out of ice
Now that you're gone the summer's too long
And it seems like the end of my life beyond and before
[Verse 1]
Sparkling trees of silver foam
Cast shadows soft in winter home
Swaying branches breaking sound
Lonely forest trembling ground
[Verse 2]
Masquerading leaves of blue
Run circles round the morning dew
Patterns understood by you
Reaching out beyond and before
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Reaching the snow in the days of the cold
Casting a spell out of ice
Now that you're gone the summer's too long
And it seems like the end of my life beyond and before
[Interlude]
[Outro]
Time like gold dust brings mind down
Time like gold dust brings mind down
