There was a time, now far away |
|
That now belongs to yesterday |
|
But late at night if you believe |
|
There are still parts you can retrieve |
|
Beyond our memories |
|
Past where the eyes can see |
|
Well disguised |
|
Waiting there, dream devised |
|
Safe from time's endless reach |
|
Everything a child can teach |
|
What to keep, what to save |
|
When to dare an ocean's wave |
|
There among life's memories |
|
Remnants of a lullaby and thee |
|
There was a time, now long before |
|
We found a way to close each door |
|
But in our minds through labyrinths deep |
|
Late in our lives, those doors we seek |
|
And in our fantasies |
|
We try to find the keys |
|
Reach the stairs |
|
Follow them, each to where |
|
Scattered there on the ground |
|
Everything lost is found |
|
Wished on coins, childhood wings |
|
Carousels still turning |
|
Waiting there patiently |
|
Remnants of a lullaby and thee |
