Beyond Grey Skies
Ikon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Far away
Another place
Beyond the stars
Beyond the sun
In my dreams
I have seen the colours
In my dreams
A forgotten world

If you feel
The way I do
If you've seen
Through my eyes
Don't betray
Me now
I have come here
Only for you

In the distance
A change is coming
To look beyond
All I have seen
I had a vision
Of another world
I had a vision
Beyond here and now

There is a place
For you and I
There is a place
Beyond grey skies
