"Far Beyond Here"

“Far Beyond Here”
Copyright by Frank DeCenso, Jr

[Vs1]
I hear some desert dogs, howling at the moon;
Midnight's rain is gone now as crickets sing in tune...
Falling stars are dancing, not too far away;
Here the whole universe is music on display...

[Vs2]
The morning creeps above, those mountain tops in view;
The sky is drawn with crayons, just like a child threw…
Miracles of color, fill up this desert land;
An avalanche of beauty is always near at hand...

CHORUS
There is a place beyond here where clean mountain springs,
Are bringing life and beauty to seldom seen things;
A place that’s far beyond here, past the city lights;
Down an endless highway, where lives are remade right –
It is far beyond here…
I can take you there tonight.

[Vs3]
I can’t believe the stillness, the night has left behind;
Grips me with a welcomeness that is so hard to find…
I’ve stopped hearing voices that screamed through city nights;
Angry that their choices could never be quite right...

CHORUS
There is a place beyond here where clean mountain springs,
Are bringing life and beauty to seldom seen things;
A place that’s far beyond here, past the city lights;
Down an endless highway, where lives are remade right –
It is far beyond here…
I can take you there tonight.

BRIDGE
Can you hear serenity,
It’s calling in the wind –
Together far beyond here...
Somewhere we've never been...

CHORUS
There is a place beyond here where clean mountain springs,
Are bringing life and beauty to seldom seen things;
A place that’s far beyond here, past the city lights;
Down an endless highway, where lives are remade right –
It is far beyond here…
Let me take you there tonight
