Lyrics
I Dwell In Possibility
They come to me in lucid sleep
When my mind can’t resist
Why do I live my life more easily
As a vision in the mist?
I Dwell in Possibility
Like a dreamer, like Emily
I Dwell in Possibility
And there’s no place I’d rather be
They tempt me with a siren song
Like a nagging melody
And drag me till I follow along
willingly.
I Dwell in Possibility
Like a dreamer, like Emily
I Dwell in Possibility
And there’s no place I’d rather be
Take me to the borderline
Where the mind resigns
And the heart decides
I’d rather risk the fall
From such dazzling heights
I’d rather risk it all
Than live in the grey twilight
They fill my head with viscous clouds
That smother all my doubts
And once they flow up to the brim
I feel them spilling from my mouth
I Dwell in Possibility
Like a dreamer, like Emily
I Dwell in Possibility
And there’s no place I’d rather be
Somethin’ Familiar
There’s somethin’ familiar about this day
There’s somethin’ peculiar about the way
I can breathe it into my lungs
Hold it under my tongue
Like I’ve already tasted it
I keep a collection of clues
that leak from another dimension
sealed in an airtight jar (I’m saving it up)
when I’ve tired of this life, gonna shake it
gonna make it fall into place like a weightless jigsaw
then I’ll dive into the other realm
and I’ll ride at the helm with the other puzzle solvers
There’s somethin’ familiar about this place
There’s somethin’ peculiar about the way
I can sift it through my hands
These grainy remains of an ancient motherland
And have a sense of where I am
I keep a collection of clues
that leak from another dimension
sealed in an airtight jar (I’m saving it up)
when I’ve tired of this life, gonna shake it
gonna make it fall into place like a weightless jigsaw
then I’ll dive into the other realm
and I’ll ride at the helm with the other puzzle solvers
There’s somethin’ familiar about your face
There’s somethin’ peculiar about the way
I can see beyond your eyes
Into another time when I loved you once before
…and I’ll find you in the other realm and we’ll ride
Will I Drown
I’m drifting further
I can hardly see the shore
And my body’s aching
Still it begs for more
Will I drown in your laughter
Will I drown in your sighs
Will I drown in your beauty
Will I drown in your eyes
I’m almost treading
In a pale blue green haze
The waves are rising
In the wake of your gaze
Will I drown in your laughter
Will I drown in your sighs
Will I drown in your beauty
Will I drown in your eyes
And I’m barely aware now
In this nautical trance
Is there nothing to fear here
In the warmth of your glance?
I’m gasping for air here
With sharks at my feet
But don’t be alarmed dear
Just leave me at sea
Take My Hand
Time after time
This life has brought you so much pain
Still in your eyes a bit of light remains
I wish I could take away the things
That have done you harm, but I …
I can’t stop the world from turning
I can’t stop you from hurting
If you need someone to restore your faith
Take my hand
I will show you how it feels to be loved
Take my hand
Let me show you how it feels
The passing of time
Takes you further from that place
Still in your eyes all the fear remains
I wish I could chase away the ghost
That still haunts your mind, but I…
I can’t stop the world from turning
I can’t stop you from hurting
If you need someone to restore your faith
Take my hand
I will show you how it feels to be loved
Take my hand
Let me show you how it feels
Sing Me to Sleep
Let the night sky descend
As I fall in your arms
Let this ballad begin
With the beat of your heart
Sing me to sleep
Under a starlit sky
Sing me to sleep
With a simple lullaby
Will you lay here with me
In the last light of day?
You can bring on my dreams
With your soft serenade
Sing me to sleep
Under a starlit sky
Sing me to sleep
With a simple lullaby
Don’t promise me the moon
Don’t promise me the starts
’cause all I want from you
is a song from your heart
won’t you rock me like a child
singin’ good night my girl?
You can drown out the world
With those four little words
Sing me to sleep
Under a starlit sky
Sing me to sleep
With a simple lullaby
Half Man Half Horse
From out of the shadows on a moonlit night
Comes a strange silhouette in celestial light and it’s
Half man half horse
Half man half horse
Is this a monster of mythical days
In the guise of a man with a beautiful face?
Come, come with me
I’ll show you a world you never have seen
Come, come with me
I’ll show you a world you’ll never believe
And all of my, all of my, all of my life I
Have waited for you
In all of my, all of my, all of my life I
Have never been so consumed
What is this creature that beckons to me
Whose unearthly features won’t let me speak?
Half man half horse
Half man half horse
Is he a mortal or is he a steed
Or is he some figment I’ve seen in my dreams?
Come, come with me
I’ll show you a world you never have seen
Come, come with me
I’ll show you a world you’ll never believe
And all of my, all of my, all of my life I
Have waited for you
In all of my, all of my, all of my life I
Have never been so consumed
….ride off into the moonlight
In All Your Love
I know your love is an endless sea
And I sail across the water
Just to see how far I can reach
I know you only want the best for me
And it fills my heart with wonder
When you give so unselfishly
In all your love
I know your love will stand the test of time
I can see into the future
I can see it in your eyes
And I know that you’re the best thing in my life
When I feel your arms around me
When I spend another night
In all your love
In your love that I feel around me
In your love that leaves room to breathe
In your love that I let surround me
I am all that I long to be
In all your love
Reeling Me In
Don’t recall the day
Don’t recall the reason
I left my heartstrings dangling dangerously in the breeze
Those dirty birds of prey took hold of me
Where I thought I’d ended and flew into a frenzy
Till I came undone at the seams
Now I’m reeling me in I’m stealing me back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
I’m reeling me in ah the feeling is back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
Suspended in a web of one thousand leashes
They drain the life out of me
Like one thousand leeches
But I didn’t flinch no I didn’t move an inch
No I didn’t dare displease them
I sat lilting like a marionette
Waiting for them to give me breath
They stretched me in such painful directions
But I was too frayed to correct them
Now I’m reeling me in I’m stealing me back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
I’m reeling me in ah the feeling is back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
I let them jerk me around till I lost circulation
I let them work me around till I lost all sensation
Yes I was the one giving the thread
Now I’m reeling me in I’m stealing me back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
I’m reeling me in ah the feeling is back
And I’ll only surrender what I want you to have
Now I move with the grace of my intended shape
Little Blue Room
It’s a waking nightmare
A hell on earth
Are you coming or going?
No way to be sure
I stare out the window
To my surprise
Their world keeps on spinning
Mine is frozen in time, cause I’m
Waiting for answers
Waiting for hours
Praying for chances
From a higher power
And all the love I feel for you
And all the pain and there’s nothing I can do
How does it all fit in this little blue room?
There is so much to say
It’s too much to mention
I can’t find a way
To break all this tension, while I’m
Waiting for answers
Waiting for hours
Praying for chances
From a higher power
And all the love I feel for you
And all the pain and there’s nothing I can do
How does it all fit in this little blue room?
I see in the doorway
The man in white
I have so many questions
Can he spare the time?
