Oh, the tidal wave is crashing, comes washing in
Don't be afraid, when nothing lasts for long
Hopes and dreams have turned to dust and you're lost again
Standing still while time is passing on

When there's nothing else left to break
We still have a song to sing, we'll sing
When there's no more fear, no more ache
Standing by the crystal sea, you and me
We'll sing

Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh, on the golden streets
Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh

For now, we're standing on the fault line, hold steady dear
As continents collide beneath our feet
When cares assail, when fears assault I'm still ready here
To join the melody of souls set free

When there's nothing else left to break
We still have a song to sing, we'll sing
When there's no more fear, no more ache
Standing by the crystal sea, you and me
We'll sing

Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh, on the golden streets
Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh

Flood waters rise even to your soul
But above the skies are streets of gold

When there's nothing else left to break
We still have a song to sing, we'll sing
When there's no more fear, no more ache
Standing by the crystal sea, you and me
We'll sing

Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh, on the golden streets
Oh oh oh, by the crystal sea
Oh oh oh...
