Journey on through ages gone, to the centre of the earth
|
Past rocks of quartz and granite, which gave mother nature birth
|
Burial ground of ancient man, his life no more is seen,
|
A journey through his time unknown, I wonder where he's been
|
Wonder where he's been, wonder where he's been, wonder where he's been
|
The shore now gone behind the hills, a forest in our sight,
|
Rocks and distant mountains, bathed in waves of blinding light
|
Forests from far gone time, no living man has seen,
|
A private prehistoric world, for you and I a dream
|
Brownish hue dicates my eye, no colour hides their fear,
|
Flowers faded, dull and cold, now bleached by atmosphere
|
Creatures twisting under trees, huge monsters soaked with rage
|
Hidden deep below our earth, a frightening, bygone age
|
Their shepherd came, now long extinct, a huge primeval man
|
The three men filled with disbelief, just turned as one and ran.
