somewhere in time

somewhere in time
the birds flew so free
somewhere in time
circling that open sky

somewhere in time
the sea was calm and still
somewhere in time
as gentle waves splashed

flowing in unison with your steps
as you walk by that white sandy beach
reflecting with your thoughts
so deep like an endless dungeon
without no end without no home

thinking about the mystery of life
juggling the thoughts in your mind
why things happen as they are
why people weep and cry
why people suffer and die
why why why

life is but a state?
a step to the next?
but all we know is that
we all live we all leave and die
when it's time for us to part
and bid this earth goodbye
this created paradise for us

then we're only just but a memory
a passing fleeting piece of thought
by our love ones in their conversations
by our love ones in their reflections

why is life so short
why is life so full
of questions unanswered
that lingers in our mortal soul

why is happiness so fickle
why is a smile only stays for awhile
why can't contentment run and thrive
in our lives, in our hearts for all time...

music is by John Barry... a rhapsody on a theme on Paganini...
