Yes · Other Songs - Yes
Dreaming that you know me well
Let me tell you far away
Looking down on you
If you know my spirit
Always shall you know me now
Singing is your pleasure
Looking down on you
Now I hear you singing
Saying that you know me well
Take me to your promise
New state of mind
Now I feel you sighing
Saying that you understand
Feeling all the power
Looking down on you
You know that I would be
The one who waits forever
You know that someday we will find
A way to share our love
Now I hear you singing
Dreaming that you know me well
Let me tell you far away
New state of mind
