Can we go away And never turn around again On an escapade And always keep the vision Can we open out And spread ourselves around the sand Captivate the sun Keep the light 'til the world ends Runaway Runaway Take away the wall And break away my defense Candle by our side And never let the rain begin We're a part of a plan And it's already written There is no other way It's inside our every sense Earth is our island Karma, am I yours Is that your intuition If that is your word I'm the definition In our destinies This is what was missing Echo in my mind Even through a distance
