Since I was a child I've seen her in a dream A captured fairytale That echoes cross my life
And though I've courted her She's always stayed unseen Now all at once she Glitters in the night
But that was yesterday And that all was before When she was far away A silhouette of dreams
But others whispered That she was so much more And suddenly I now Know what they mean
Dreams change Years strains Lost illusions Last stands God's hand Absolution Found
Fairytale sins Visions by Grimm All forgiven Lives spent in vain Never reclaimed Take their final bows
Pictures and words Visions absurd Maddened poets All within sight Failure in life Who'll never know it Lazarus cries There in his eye Hope has risen Depth and facade All before me now
