lyrics

Visions In Time

Your love long longer the longer I wait
Tears all knowing fall from the ages of sighs
My hands cupped on the table
Filled with the liquid of lies
I won’t stand in your garden
Pretend that the flowers from heaven will give me the proof
I am not a fool, I am not a fool
I ask only for glimpses of truth

Your face dream dreaming while dreaming I lay
Your books of knowledge filled with impossible words
My hands touched by their silence
My ears rung by voices unheard
I won’t talk in your footsteps
Pretend that your falsehoods will cover what I shouldn’t see
I am not a fool, I am not a fool
I ask only your interest in me

Your bed soft softly now softly I weep
Come the morning our promise held out to the night
My hands stretched to the limit
Grasping at shadows in light
I won’t sleep with your virtue
Pretend that your foolish uncommon reflection will sigh
I am not a fool, I am not a fool
I ask only to let it pass by

Your laugh sad sadly now sadly I go
Heart sore and weary, dust on my tongue and my soul
My hands broken by indifference
My fingers worn down to the bone
I won’t reach for your distance
Pretend that the miles will all fall away as a sign
I am not a fool, I am not a fool
I ask only for visions in time
