In golden Hannibal Carthage days, marching on to Rome
Knocking on the door and finding nobody home there
Rome she cut our armies down and left them in the snow
So now I go to where I come from
Now I go home to the sun
When the earth moves again
When the earth moves again my friend
Let the lady ride on through
When the earth moves again
Egyptian kings they sing of gods and pyramids of stone
And they left the deserts clean, and they left the deserts golden
And shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road
(I do)
Into the day and through the night
We go and find our way home
When the earth moves again
My love to all the people I leave behind
Search out the new ground around you
When the earth moves again
Your head can pull your body around 'n you can
Leave whenever you can find the ground
Take what you find on the ground
Sea foam glass is sand
If you've only lived on earth (If you haven't lived in heaven)
You've never seen the sun
Or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here
And if you care to see the future, just look into the eyes
Of your young, dancing children;
Don't be afraid of our ways
When the earth moves again
When the earth moves again
Watch the lady ride and sigh
When the earth moves again
Moses, Moses, the Red Sea closes
Over you when you least expect it to
When the earth moves again
When the earth moves again
