Cities of glass and steel
Gave way to open fields
The emerald sky revealed
A light so carefree
It could have shined forever
And we laughed
And drank
Dance and sang
On that November night
We could have laughed forever
The emerald moon sat high each night
As we danced beneath the open sky
The world a carnival
And our life a great surprise
We roamed the land
Until the sunrise
We cut a way through wooded land
To take us where the music ran
We chased it down and then began
To spin around with each new note
A dizzy sound kaleidoscope
The people seem to laugh and joke
In the rhythm of our new life
Press on till you find your way
That's what we did each day
On our way to where the music plays
Rain or shine
Night and day
And in the brilliant light we solved the strangest thing
80,000 people all stood up to sing
A song of celebration for the time we had
Beneath the sacred emerald moon one winter night
