Before the Dinosaurs Lyrics by Aura Dione

Before the Dinosaurs

2011

[Verse 1]
Long time ago so far away from here
There was a time we couldn't disappear
Before the birds have learnt how to fly
[Pre-Chorus]
There is ma-magic in this moment
There is no dark side to the sunset
You're with me and I am yours forever
[Chorus]
We were here before the dinosaurs
We were hiding in the mountains
We were here before the dinosaurs
I was just practicing my guitar
[Verse 2]
My heart is small, a democracy
I hang your picture in my inner gallery
You and me looking out from the mountain top
[Pre-Chorus]
There is ma-magic in this moment
There is no dark side to the sunset
You're with me and I am yours forever
[Chorus]
We were here before the dinosaurs
We were hiding in the mountains
We were here before the dinosaurs
I was just practicing my guitar
[Bridge]
Come with me into the deep
Till you can touch the ground with your feet
Come with me we'll swim in the sky
That's how the birds learn how to fly
[Chorus]
We were here before the dinosaurs
We were hiding in the mountains
We were here before the dinosaurs
I was just practicing my guitar
[Outro]
And one day they say we'll go away
But I want to stay forever
Cause I was here before the dinosaurs
Always practicing my guitar
We were here before the dinosaurs
We were here before the dinosaurs
We were here before the dinosaurs
