Simpatico is a good word. We should use it more often.
Same Song, Different Singers, Expanded Lyrics.
Calling all dreamers and optimistic fools:
Don’t let go of your dream, make it now, make it all come true.
If you believe in a brighter day
I know we can find our way.
To this island, in a starry ocean,
Poetry in motion, this island earth.
Spinnin’ like a dancer, gravity is the answer.
Rendezvous in the blue, this island earth.
We don’t know what’s in store today.
We can spread our wings and we can soar away
Or we can go like the dinosaurs, they say.
The choice is ours to make.
All this seems like yesterday.
We can wake up one day and be history
Or stick around to unravel the mystery
Of how we came to be.
On this island, in a starry ocean,
Poetry in motion, this island earth.
A beautiful oasis for all the human races.
The only home that we know, this island earth.
Well I know we can touch the stars one day.
Kick up the dust on Mars one day
Or trip the light of the Milky Way.
We’ve got to find our way.
If you’re lookin’ for a miracle, open your eyes.
There was one this morning, just about sunrise.
Dawn came breakin’ like a wave on the sea
And it’s there for you and me.
Calling all dreamers and optimistic fools:
Don’t let go of your dream, make it now, make it all come true.
If you believe in a brighter day,
I know we can find our way.
To this island, in a starry ocean,
She’s poetry in motion, this island earth.
Spinnin’ like a dancer, gravity is the answer.
Rendezvous in the blue, this island earth.
Whoa, this island earth
Got to find our way
Whoa, this island earth
Whoa, this island earth
