Step this way my friend we have to mark the line somewhere
We're really pushed for time that's why we brought you here today
This wasn't meant for you, it was meant for someone else
But try this one for size for the rest of your life
(Inside me)
I'm almost there
(Beside me)
At the cellar stairs yeah
(Day nine)
Ooooh just a little more
(Day nine)
Be out here soon enough
(Day nine)
Try and walk today
(Day nine)
Life's a crazy game
Heaven, freedom, always, always
Heaven, freedom, always, always
Walking down the roads
The backstreets of time
Picking up the scent
Of a happier time
Not a moment passed
When I stopped and thought
Ooh this was foolish play
Just a youthful export
But oh my, what a fool I've become
To play tricks on myself
That a journey through
The land of dreams could be free
At the halfway house
It was already too late
There were gifts of wine, and women, and song
But by the time the Lord
Had touched my open hand
Three score years had passed
Each one had it's song
But oh my, what a fool I've become
To play tricks on myself
That a journey through
The land of dreams could be free
But oh my, what a fool I've become
To play tricks on myself
That a journey through
The land of dreams could be free
But oh my, what a way to deceive
They just offer to you
The land of dreams for free
The land of dreams
In the land of dreams
Never time to be free
What have I become
In that land of dreams
