Song lyrics
Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air 
And deep beneath the rolling waves 
In labyinths of coral caves 
The echo of a distant time 
Comes willowing across the sand 
And everything is green and submarine 

And no-one showed us to the land 
And no-one knows the wheres or whys 
But something stirs and something tries 
And starts to climb towards the light 

Strangers passing in the street 
By chance two separate glances meet 
And I am you and what i see is me 
And do i take you by the hand 
And lead you through the land 
And help me understand the best i can 

And no-one calls us to move on 
And no-one forces down our eyes 
And no-one speaks and no-one tries 
And no-one flies around the sun 

Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes 
Inviting and inciting me to rise 
And through the window in the wall 
Come streaming in on sunlight wings 
A million bright ambassadors of morning 

And no-one sings me lullabies 
And no-one makes me close my eyes 
And so I throw the windows wide 
And call to you across the sky

This song is purely the most amazing song ever made, from the very first *pling* to the ending with the wind, I shiver, from top to toe, this song is beautiful. Not only was the song made using all band-members feelings, it has a rather technical beauty which is hard to find in songs in the 21'st century, now it's only about making the catchiest R'n'B-song(I don't know what they play on the radio in your countries, but here in Sweden it's all about rap/hip-hop/R'n'B, and of course that junk-so-called-rock -_-. I thank Pink Floyd for making this song, and for all of their albums, not only the 19 albums in the discography, but all of their works, which you can find out on the web(10 gigs of Pink Floyd on my computer right now ). Yes, Pink Floyd is the best band ever, so let's thank the members for making songs that have made us happy when we were sad, that made us love eachother when we were mad, thank you Nick Mason, Syd Barrett, David Gilmour, Richard Wright and Roger Waters .

1 of my favourite songs of all time, the Rhythm, Melody, Instruments, Lyrics and Vocals are just perfect. Usually listen to this song when i want to "chill out". And by the way Famest i'm swedish too and i totally agree about the hip hop/ r ´n´b/ rap thing. they usually just use their computers to make the "beat" and melody and so on. i just can't call that music, maybe it's music for somebodys ears but to me it sounds like some1 who would really like to be able to play an instrument but they can't. and real music is made by real humans and instruments

A true masterpiece by Pink Floyd. David Gilmour and Rick Wright executed this great song with absolute greatness. The Live at Pompeii version proves my point
