Sometimes it takes a shock To realize where we've been And turning back the clock Sticks you like a pin And the world spins before my eyes With everything I've ever sensed I feel it all again From a state of innocence. (innocence...) Chorus: And my mind tells me to forget all my fears And my ears can hear my mother down the hall And my life is reduced to the flow of running tears And my eyes can see the beauty of it all. I feel the sun's warmth on my face On a chill November morn As my mouth recalls the taste Of a sweetly ripened orange. And friends who long have died And those alive and well Pass before my eyes Like the lifting of a veil. (lifting me...) |
Chorus: But my mind tells me that none of these things are here And my ears can hear the siren's lonely call And I swear that I feel pain somewhere in here But my eyes can see the beauty of it all. And my visions slowly fade To the weight of a doctor's stare And I feel how much she gave And I feel how much she cares. And there's love throughout this place Swirling all around the room It laps against my face I want to stay here... I want to stay here. Chorus: But my mind tells me that the end is drawing near And my ears can start to hear the angels call And the pain - slowly starts to disappear And my eyes can see the beauty of it all. ©1994 James (Gary) Geniesse |
