Down here below 
The winds of change are blowing 
Through the weary night. 
I prayed my soul will find me 
Shining in the morning light, 
Down here below. 
Down here below, 
It's not so easy 
Just to be. 
Sometimes I'm really all at sea. 
You made me when the world was new 
And skies were blue
And I'm here because there's you. 
They say I'll never see your face 
And we're out there from your grace, 
The one you fashioned with your hand, 
And scattered all across the land, 
But I am happy just to know 
That you must go 
Where I must go 
For there are winds and scars to show 
Livin' here down here below
Down here below, 
The setting sun is shining 
On the melancholy mood. 
I hear the distant thunder 
And the crying of the blue 
Down where below 

I'm yours alone
The only one to call my own 
The only one I've ever known 
Sometimes I see you 
Standing there 
Sometimes I'm freer. 
And you are here, 
Down here with me, 
You made me just the way a hear, 
Or less feeling, eyes to see 
A strange embrace, a simple hand, 
A spirit free that says: "I can", 
And I'm happy just to know 
That you will go  
Where I must go, 
For you send me this I know 
Living here, down here below, 
Living here, down here below, 
Living here, down here below.
