I heard it sound from the valleys low I heard it from mountaintops covered in snow I heard it rise from the oceans deep I heard it echo off canyon walls steep What'd you hear? A beautiful sound How'd it sound? It sounded like this (Beautiful sound) As it echoed in my ears My face glistened damp with the sheen of my tears As I drew near to your side I knew it was useless to flee or to hide There is a sound ringing out day and night It fills up each shadow on earth with its light I felt the sound fill my innards and limbs I felt it watching me think from within What'd it see? Desire split in thirds How'd it feel? The strain was immense These are the times that test all our bonds Our mutual will is all twisted and stretched But still the sound, the notes and the chords Reside in our chests where they've been deeply etched My soul and spirit are apart My bones and my marrow, divided as well And what the eye that sees me sees Are pieces of body and fractions of self What'd you hear? How'd it sound?
