I Heard It Lyrics - Hayward Justin (moody Blues)

I was driving down a lonely highway 

As the sun went down 

I heard a voice right beside me saying 

Why don't you turn around 

Why don't you stop - feel the wonder 

Listen to the sound 

Well I heard it - I heard it 

I heard it - I heard it 

Have you listened to the bell at midnight 

On the still night air 

It sets you dreaming of the strangest journey 

Across the great somewhere 

Then you start the brave adventure 

Dreams without a care 

Well I heard it - I heard it 

I heard it - I heard it 

Like leaves borne on the wind 

Our words will fade and die 

Only to return 

As new life by and by 

The passions that we feel 

Like lovers wild and free 

Are footsteps on the sand 

Holding back the mighty sea 

There's a place - a secret garden 

And when the day is done 

We lie among the grass and flowers 

Underneath the sun 

As we look up the sky is turning 

But with the earth we're one 

Well I heard it - I heard it 

I heard it - I heard it 

The passions that we feel 

Like lovers wild and free 

Are footsteps on the sand 

Holding back the mighty sea 

There's a voice - that calls us onwards 

Down the lonely street 

And when we tread the path no longer 

The circle is complete 

A million souls scream in anguish 

And others rest in sleep
