        F      A#    F
Cast a pebble on the water
            F               A# 
Watch the ripples gently spreading
      F               Am7
Tiny daughter of the Camargue
        Gm7            A#
We were meant to be together
         F       A#    F
We were made for one another
      F7               A#
In a time it takes to grow up
    A#          Gm7
If only we were old enough
      Am7        A#             F   A#  F
Then they might leave us both alone

Chorus:
           A#  C         F   A#  F  A#  F
So take my hand in your hand
A#         C           F    A#  F
Say it's great to be alive
          A#       C
No one's going to find us
    F       C       Dm7
No matter how they try
          D#        A# 
No one's going to find us
     Gm7           F      A#         F
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

Chorus

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 heavy
