There's a treasure chest
below the waves of stormy seas.
It is where shipwrecks rest;
it's guarded by an ugly beast.

And I will make a dive
though I don't know the way,
and I will seize the chest
and hold the beast at bay.

Now it's dark below
the heavy clouds with rain and hail,
but this I always know:
there is the sun, the sun is shining there.

And I will build good wings
and fly through the rain and hail
to reach the deep blue sky,
to feed my hungry eyes.

There’s a world outside to which I owe it all.
And there's a heart inside that I should use to love.

So when the chest is open
under the shining sun,
I'll know that it was worth it
and that my job is done.

And so my job is done.
