All the stars in the sky burn the black, close your eyes
All the stars in the sky say 'Goodbye', say 'Goodbye.'

We were here yesterday, now you seem so far away
We were here yesterday, I heard you saying you don't know me
You know one side of a story, oh you don't know me

So open wide your wounded heart, feel yourself be blown apart
Open wide your wounded heart, it's a funny place to start
In the light of the sun, we are found, we are undone
In the light of the sun, we are a one

And you don't know me, you know one side of a story

Oh you don't know me

All the seeds beneath the snow start to grow, start to grow
All the seeds beneath the snow say 'Hello', say 'Hello.'
All the seeds lie below, deep in heart and what we know
All the seeds lie below, the ones we sowed

And you don't know me, you know one side of a story
But if could be free, one with all this glory
If we could be free...
