In my early years I hid my tears[00:00:00]

And passed my days alone[00:00:06]

Adrift on an ocean of loneliness[00:00:11]

My dreams like nets were thrown[00:00:16]

To catch the love that I'd heard of[00:00:21]

In books and films and songs[00:00:26]

There's a world of illusion and fantasy[00:00:32]

In the place where the real world belongs[00:00:37]

Now I look for the beauty in songs[00:00:42]

To fill my head and lead me on[00:00:47]

Though my dreams[00:00:52]

Have come up torn and empty[00:00:54]

As many times as love has come and gone[00:00:57]

To those gentle ones my memory runs[00:01:02]

To the laughter we shared at the meals[00:01:08]

I filled their kitchens and living rooms[00:01:14]

With my dreams and my broken wheels[00:01:18]

It was never clear how far or near[00:01:23]

The gates to my citadel lay[00:01:29]

They were cutting[00:01:34]

From stone some dreams of their own[00:01:35]

But they listened to mine anyway[00:01:39]

I'm not sure what I'm trying to say[00:01:44]

It could be I've lost my way[00:01:50]

Though I keep a watch over the distance[00:01:55]

Heaven's no closer than it was yesterday[00:02:00]

And the angels are older[00:02:04]

They know not to wait up for the sun[00:02:11]

They look over my shoulder[00:02:14]

At the maps and the drawings[00:02:19]

Of the journey I've begun[00:02:21]

Now the distance leads me farther on[00:02:29]

Though the reasons I once had are gone[00:02:34]

I keep thinking I'll find what I'm looking for[00:02:39]

In the sand beneath the dawn[00:02:45]

And the angels are older[00:02:49]

They can see that the sun's setting fast[00:02:55]

They look over my shoulder[00:02:59]

At the vision of paradise[00:03:03]

Contained in the light of the past[00:03:06]

And they lay down behind me[00:03:09]

To sleep beside the road[00:03:15]

Till the morning has come[00:03:17]

Where they know they will find me[00:03:20]

With my maps and my faith in the distance[00:03:24]

Moving farther on[00:03:28]
