Distant horizons you're surprising me
See how you've changed in your fight to be free
Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me

You used to be so close
I could have touched your hand
I see your picture now
And you've become a no-man's land

I long to visit you
But now it seems too late
Don't let these modern times
Make you one more mistake

Take my heart, take my soul
You've captured all of me
If you can't let me go
Then live in peace and set me free

Distant horizons you're surprising me

Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me

You're reaching out to me
I hide inside your smile
It's time for us to love
But we must wait a while

I long to visit you
And there live out my fate
Don't let these lying eyes
Lead you to hesitate

Take my heart, take my soul
You've captured all of me
If you can't let me go
Then live in peace and set me free

Distant horizons you're surprising me
See how you've changed in your fight to be free

Distant horizons you're surprising me
If you can't let me go, in peace let me be

Political intervention
Is something we shouldn't mention
But I've seen your face on every screen
And it's looking at me
Capturing me, looking at me, capturing me
