The days were brighter

Gardens more blooming

The nights had more hope

In their silence the wild was calling

Wishes were whispering

The time was there

But without a meaning



Away, away in time

Every dream's a journey away

Away to a home, away from care

Everywhere's just a journey away



The days departed

Gardens deserted

This frail world

My only rest?



The wild calls no more

Wishes so hollow

The Barefoot Boy

Weeping in an empty night



Away



Cherish the moment

Tower the skies

Don't let the dreamer

Fade to grey like grass



No falling for life

A gain for every loss

Time gathered me

But kept me flying



"For this gift of dream I must pay the price

with the loss of life's pleasures"
