lyrics

AS REAL AS IN A DREAM

Arriving late afternoon
The boat is crossing the lagoon
I was waiting for a new age to come find me
Behind ancient walls
Colored like wet desert sand
Out on the terrace at midnight I heard the bells toll

We float between the buildings now
As real as in a dream
The lights glow dim as they flicker on
We were lost on narrow streets

Set on leaving something worth
While moving towards invisibility
And being here I did get deep into it
Almost too restless
To sink in and enjoy
I was looking for something as good as longing for it

We float between the buildings now…

Stranded nights and broken games
It was a time of darkening skies
And decency was needed from those who have it
We’re all in our own
And I was moving on in mine
But some hands were held out instead of passing

Is it just nothing
The aching loss of not being there
All the things you can no longer do
Is there just a void
The lacking throb of not being part of time
Or somewhere else to go

We float between the buildings now…
