|
(Narrator) |
|
So far from Heaven |
|
Her heart never free |
|
A captive in her own mind |
|
And her face bears the frown |
|
Of the fears that lock her deep underground |
|
And so she, a lonely tower |
|
(Woman) |
|
With my ear against the wall |
|
I swear I can hear the stones cry out |
|
For their brothers |
|
For their sisters |
|
The rocks on the hills surrounding me |
|
(Narrator) |
|
Behind those tear-stained eyes |
|
Her bewildered mind denies |
|
Their souls embrace |
|
Way up high on a cliff |
|
Above a vast sea |
|
She, a lonely tower |
|
Captive by self design |
|
The walls mortared with tears |
|
With the dust of all those lost hopeful tears |
|
(Man) |
|
The Lila of love |
|
On the stage of the age |
|
Though our hearts never changed |
|
Still page after page |
|
The script remains the same |
|
Upon the moonlit fields of my yearning heart |
|
Though I dream |
|
My unrelenting soul is searching |
|
(Narrator) |
|
Once in the shadows of her mind |
|
Haunting the halls of memory |
|
The ghost of all regretting |
|
Legend tells that the sea |
|
Holds no memory |
|
A distant island she came to be |
|
No rest for her was found |
|
But there came his voice, a sound |
|
Carried on the sea |
|
Calling her onward |
|
To dare anew |
|
And chance the blue once more |
|
Now she, a stranded vessel |
|
On uncharted shore |
|
Yearns for his promise |
|
That lies beyond her prison door |
|
(Man) |
|
Dawning now light between us |
|
Appears as the sun |
|
(Woman) |
|
May I safely walk past the land mines |
|
My own thoughts had laid for me |
|
(Man) |
|
We must believe for our souls |
|
Fly as one, catch the sun |
|
Homeward we'll climb! |
|
(Woman) |
|
In the depths of my mind |
|
Wherein shadows crept |
|
Still haunting me |
|
The ghost of all regrets |
|
(The Tempter) |
|
Behold my beauty |
|
I pierce the secret design |
|
My nature revealed in |
|
Patterns brilliantly aligned |
|
Oh, won't you hesitate to fly as one |
|
Catch the sun? |
|
Circles of mortal fate |
|
Lost the sound now |
|
Unveiled, no reprise for the glory |
|
(Man) |
|
A message to endure |
|
For the heart that's pure |
|
(The Tempter) |
|
Lay to waste your faith |
|
You're flesh and bone! |
|
(Woman) |
|
True love's embrace |
|
Ever beckoning |
|
(Man) |
|
Oh my love |
|
Hear! I'm calling you! |
|
We must believe for our souls |
|
To fly as one, catch the sun |
|
Dawning light between us |
|
And this homeward we climb |
|
As the sound is unveiled |
|
Our true nature revealed |
|
Remember my love, |
|
Oh, remember me this hour |
|
Lift up your heart |
|
A prayer on the wind |
|
And never to falter |
|
As our life will begin anew |
|
God sculpted wings |
|
For us to ascend |
|
Our love to blossom |
|
In His garden unending |
|
A perfect love unending |
