I was adrift on an ocean of dreams I was amazed... And as I sail to the end of the world I'm not afraid... Mournful moon and willow tree Tell the world not to weep for me And I will be set free...
I took a drink from a bottle of wine And I was chained... Made a deal with the devil inside And I was shamed... I have sailed on stormy seas Where the four winds blow me; Shining moon and willow tree Tell the world--remember me For I will be set free...
All that we see, All that we seem Is but a shadow of a shadow Of a dream within a dream; But if a tree is evergreen, Then maybe part of us Could be eternal... Though tangled life May be no more, A drop rain upon the ocean Grain of sand upon the shore The words will live forevermore If you can hear me now, Am I immortal?
Magic moon and willow tree If they ask about me, Tell the truth, and they might learn; Light a candle and watch it burn... Then I will be set free...
Free as a bird Upon the wing, Now all the trials and tribulations Of the world don't mean a thing; Above the clouds I'll fly away-- Was it my imagination, Did the stars come out to play? Beyond the sun-- Eternal flame, I hear a chorus of a million voices Calling out my name; But all I see and all I seem Is but a shadow of a shadow Of a dream within a dream,
Free as the wind-- Lighter than air Free from the jealous minds, The scornful, bitter words Won't hurt me there And I will live forevermore-- If you remember me, I am immortal!
