Eyes of man

I was up early one morning
When I lived alone in the dunes
As I remember it wasn't quite dawn
And I could still see the full moon
My senses told me that out in the silence
I might see or hear or feel the unknown
But the sun was faster than I was
The magic had set and was all but gone

Oh Lord, let me see something never seen before
By the eyes of man, Lord
I want to see something never seen before
By the eyes of man
I think I saw a long time ago
Will I ever see again?
People saw a long time ago
Will they ever see, Oh Lord?
