Nocturne

From The Studio Albums 1989-2007

Lyrics

Nocturne

Did I have a dream? Or did the dream have me?

Did I have a dream? Or did the dream have me?

Set off on a night-sea journey Without memory or desire Drifting through lost latitudes With no compass and no chart

Flying through hallucination Distant voices, signal fires Lighting up my unconscious And the secret places of the heart

Dream - Temporary madness Dream - A voice in the wilderness Dream - Unconscious revelations The morning says, the answer is yes

Did I have a dream? Or did the dream have me?

Did I have a dream? Or did the dream have me?

Floating through a darkened mirror Deep reflections in disguise Soaring through lost altitudes Without wonder, without fear

Symbols on a field of visions Behind the curtain of sleeping eyes On the instant of waking Another world of dreams appears

Dream - Temporary madness Dream - A walk in the wilderness Dream - Unconscious recreation The morning says, the answer is yes

Dream - Temporary madness Dream - A voice in the wilderness The morning says, the answer is yes The morning says, the answer is yes The morning says, the answer is yes
