(graham russell)

A long time ago, from the valley of the sun
Came the holy power,
When the gods were one
Searching for a new home,
Searching for this land
Guided by the stars, and a vision they had seen
The pillars of the temple,
In these hills of green
Buried deep inside for only us to find

(chorus)
It is the roar of the wind,
The power of the sun
The strength of a thousand bows
And those who near it again, will fear it again
And it's here in the heart of the rose
Painted in the sky was the moment to awake
All that lay within you,
As this dawn should break


With this force awoken, none can stand before
This is the hour, now is the time
Driven by the purest love, I give you mine
All that we must be, is everything we see

(chorus)
Our love, has brought us both together
And it's our love that will go on forever
There is no love that can become as one
Before it's time

(chorus)
It is the trees in the earth,
It is the rivers that run
And through us this secret flows
And now our destiny calls,
You'll remember it all
Our love for the heart of the rose
