Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the soundtrack Friends
Cast a pebble on the water
Watch the ripples gently spreading
Tiny daughter of the Camargue
We were meant to be together
We were made for one another
In a time it takes to grow up
If only we were old enough
Then they might leave us both alone
So take my hand in your hand
Say it's great to be alive
No one's going to find us
No matter how they try
No one's going to find us
It's wonderful so wild beneath the sky
Sleeping in the open
See the shadows softly moving
Take a train towards the southlands
Our time was never better
We shall pass the sights of splendor
On the door of a new life
It had to happen soon I guess
Whether it is wrong or it is right
We learned to be so graceful
Watching wild horses running
And from those agile angels
We knew the tide was turning
For we watched as on the skyway
The herons circled slowly
While we mere mortals watched them fly
Our sleepless eyes grew heavyMike Stewart
Chorus:
You gotta sing out if you want to get to heaven. You gotta sing out, join in and pray.
Sing out if you want to get to heaven. Ask the Lord to show you the way and He'll show you if you pray!
Well, I can sing my title clear to mansions in the sky. I'll bid farewell to ev'ry fear and wipe my weepin' eye.
(Chorus)
Wake up by the trumpet sound, I from the grave shall rise to see the judge with the glory crown, a view from flaming sky.
(Chorus twice)
