The soil was too poor to make Eden Granite and sea left no choice Though visions of heaven sustained us When John Wesley gave us a voice. Did Joseph once come to St. Michael's mount Two thousand years pass in a dream When you're working your way in the darkness Deep in the heart of the seam
(Chords same as begining of verse) I dream of a bridge on the Tamar It open us up to the east And the English live in our houses The Spanish fish in these seas
