Images of Eden

Midnight's Tide
Moonlight on the water, the sound of the oceanSitting by myself, I'm reflecting in the sandRemembering my younger daysNow I'm back to where it all beganEverything is drifting awaythroughout midnight's tideThere I first walked through Edenunder the October sky for the first timeI knew it was where I wanted to beI knew it was where I wanted to stayI will never forget what was born by a dreamI will never let go of what was given to meI will never forget when I opened my eyesto see what I was destined to beYesterday I returned to EdenI saw myself as a child outside at playWith a look of content, not a care in the worldSo unprepared for the darkness that would fall down upon himI can't change the past, so why even try?The future is drifting through midnight's tideAs a child, he was scared of tomorrow,wasting many yesterdays being afraidThe spark of life never fueled the flameSongtexteBefore long, the fire had faded awayI can't change the past, so why even try?Here I am in Eden todayunder the October sky againSeeing myself face to face at lastMaking my peace after so many years have passedHe knew who I was, but he was so scaredand so afraid of what I might sayI remember his sadness and feeling his fearWith every question, he shed so many more tears"I can feel your pain like it was yesterdayBut don't you be afraid, it will not last foreverI can tell you nothing more,for I would change what will beJust know that one dayall of your pain will end and you will be free..."
