lyrics

WAS THAT ALL?

Time overtakes you and you know that never again
Will you be that untouched and unseen
The pieces come together and the mysteries dissolve
What once seemed infinite becomes reality
You had heard the whispers
Through all the years that passed
What it would be like
Before and afterwards
Then you wake up in the morning
And it’s quiet and it is cold
And you ask into the void
Was that all?

You were never one of the closest
But neither that far away
And where you didn’t go
Your voice had already been
Your dreams were always splendid
But you woke up like a regular man
And you walked the longest roads you’d ever seen
Did you lose your longing
Did you lose your defeat
Did you lose your waiting
When you finally found your way there
Then you wake up in the morning
And it’s quiet and it is cold
And you ask into the void
Was that all?

You filled your cup to the brim
Then quickly you drank it down
But you were too excited to get the taste
Have you got someone there waiting
Who wonders what it is like
Don’t tell it all if you want it to remain
Far, far in it mellowed
When you taught yourself how
You found your way in to live
And you didn’t want to know the way out
Then you wake up in the morning
And it’s quiet and it is cold
And you ask into the void
Was that all?
