[Lyric] 80 Million Years (Sandy McLachlan)

[Verse 1]
I followed the coast to meet the sky as
A distant ghost on the horizon
Caught my eye and drew me to the waves
I journeyed forth along the shore that
Rides the cusp of ancient forces
Shifting sands of faded yesterdays
Worlds away but yet so near
I asked what brings you all the way out here
He then turned to me and smiled as he said

[Hook]
Back eighty million years
I lost my heart beneath the sea
Now every timе I walk these waters
I bring back a piеce
And I can see it in your eyes
There’s a longing in them too
Chase these endless tides of time
And find what waits for you
[Verse 2]
The river shimmered and meandered
A nimble traveller drifted as her
Figure danced amidst the summer’s haze
From the valley's hidden doorstep
Moved the grace of fortune’s warmth
Through corridors of boundless mystery
A path beyond into a dream
A voice that carries over memory
Echoes of those parting words she had for me

[Hook]
Back eighty million years
I lost my heart beneath the sea
Now every time I walk these waters
I bring back a piece
And I can see it in your eyes
There’s a longing in them too
Chase these endless tides of time
And find what waits for you

[Bridge]
The world turned and seasons changed
Still the story stayed the same
Landscapes scoured through the ages
Would guide my hand across life’s pages
[Hook]
Back eighty million years
I lost my heart beneath the sea
Now every time I walk these waters
I bring back a piece
And I can see it in your eyes
There’s a longing that I knew
Chase these endless tides of time
And find what waits for you
