(Alan Parsons — Dan Tracey)
I set out to make my mark To forge a road despite the dark Though clouds of doubt have greyed the path I followed through and faced the wrath My sword was cast in songs of light In sparks and waves - enchanted nights Crafting tales and magic spells Clever sounds in silent realms When I find my way to that peaceful glen There will be no regrets left on that road Though the burden is great every now and then I would still go back and carry that load Meet me there as lights fall This will be my curtain call Meet me there as lights fall A humble bow to close the show My heartfelt thanks before I go When the curtain falls I'll fade away We’ll meet again in a magic glade When I find my way to that peaceful glen There will be no regrets left on that road Though the burden is great every now and then I would still go back and carry that load Meet me there as lights fall This will be my curtain call Meet me there as lights fall Oh for one more trip around the sun One more dance behind the moon When my final feat is done I'll share the moment here with you Meet me there as lights fall This will be my curtain call Meet me there as lights fall This will be my last call
(Alan Parsons — David Russo — Jared Mahone — Patrick Read Johnson)
Seize the day, That is what you always told me Find a way, you would say as you would hold me Get away from here, it's all so clear you can’t stay Long ago, we were old enough to love but, not to know There were dreams we kept inside but didn't show And now, we don't know how to let go I can’t get there from here And, you can't get here from there And we can't go anywhere As long as we're still standing on this road that leads nowhere Touch the sky If you don't, when you grow old you'll wonder why You did just what you were told No one will cry for you if all you do is long to fly I can see our final curtain falling, let it be Listen to the voices calling out to all who hear Don't let your fear push life aside I can't get there from here And, you can’t get here from there And we can’t go anywhere As long as we're still standing on this road that leads nowhere But, out there it gleams far beyond all the things we know The world of our dreams calling to us But, we don’t go I can't get there from here And, you can't get here from there And we can't go anywhere As long as we’re still standing on the road that leads nowhere The road that leads nowhere
