lyrics

Seven of us from the years of my youth
Every one of us aware of some kind of truth
And though perhaps somewhere we drifted apart
I know that we still share the same heart

And it speaks to us often, it tries to be heard
At all of our windows, like a lonely lost bird
And though it flies alone, it truly flies free
Around the world and back home
It's seen all that we've yet to see

And if we listen to its song we can never forget
What the seven of us have and haven't got yet

What the seven of us have and haven't got yet
