CAPTURED IMAGINATIONS

YOU TOOK THE TIME TO CARE

I WATCHED YOU STANDING THERE

ANOTHER LIFE BESIDES YOUR OWN

TOOK A LITTLE TIME

AND SOME DOING

BUT SEE HOW WE'VE GROWN

 

CAPTURED IMAGINATIONS

 AND DREAMS  

ALL WE'VE EXPERIENCED 

ALL WE'VE SEEN

A SMALLER PART OF THE WORLD

BUT ITS THE ONE WE'RE IN

WHERE IT WAS WE BEGAN

 

THE GLOBE WAS SHOOK

THE SKIES WERE CHANGED

THE ALIGNMENT

ALL BUT RE ARRANGED 

BUT WE HELD ON

WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER

 

THROUGH STORMY SKIES

WE SAILED ON

CAME OUT ON THE DAWN

A NEW CALM PEACE BREAKING

FREE THE SPELL

YOU KNOW WHAT CAN CHANGE

AND WHAT WE HAVE

THAT NEVER WILL

 

WE BOTH WANT EVERYTHING TO LAST

BUT WE BOTH KNOW THAT ISN'T REAL

ITS JUST THE WAY WE FEEL

LYING OUT BENEATH THE STARS

LOOKING FOR ANY CLUES

THAT WE CAN USE TOMORROW

WHAT IT BRINGS I'LL SHARE WITH YOU

THE TIMES WE HAD

WERE NEVER BAD

KEPT LONELINESS ESTRANGED

CAPTURED IMAGINATIONS

AND DREAMS

AND TWO HEARTS IT WOULD SEEM

 

GLASS AND STONE

 

GLASS AND STONE

THE LAST OF SUMMER BREEZES BLOW

ITS SAD TO SEE THEM GO

BUT WHERE

ONE STORY ENDS

SO A NEW ONE BEGINS

THE SUN RECEDES 

AS COLOURED LEAVES OF AUTUMN 

TAKE FLIGHT ON GRAYER SKIES

REFLECTIONS IN YOUR EYES

 

COLOURS FADE AWAY

DRAINED OF LIFE

NO MORE DAYS OF GLORY

BASKING IN THE SUN

FALLING

ALMOST EVERY SINGLE ONE

 

ALL THAT GOT AWAY FROM US

SEEMS LIKE A LOT

THERE'S SO MUCH LOST IN TIME

ALREADY GONE

TOOK THE SUMMER

RAN AWAY

 

SUNSET PAINTS THE SKY

LEAVING YOU AND I

IN AWE

DARKNESS SETS TO FALLING

ANOTHER NIGHT WITH YOU BEGINS

TOUCH THE SKY

WHERE ANGELS FLY

TWO HEARTS MADE THE SAME

GLASS AND STONE

WE MIGHT DIE A BIT EACH DAY

BUT NOT OUR LOVE

NOTHING GETS IN THE WAY

THE SWEET SOUND OF YOU

SLEEPING BESIDE ME

FILLS MY HEART

TO FACE TOMORROW

 

WHEN THE COLD WINDS BLOW

THE TREES ARE

FULL OF SNOW

YOU'LL BE THE ONE

THAT GETS ME THROUGH EACH DAY

I FEEL IT WAS SO LONG AGO

WAS IT ALL JUST A SHOW

ONLY STOPPED WHEN I LET GO

WAS THAT THE TIME

ALL THE DAYS SEEMED SO LONG

LIFE WAS FRAGILE

BUT YET SO STRONG

 

TERROR OR JOY BY DESIGN

ALL MY HOPES MY FEARS

STRUNG OUT ON A LINE

 I WAS SO ACCEPTING

EVERYTHING WAS FINE

LIVE INSIDE THE WORLD WE CREATE

A SELF INDUCED KIND OF FATE

YOU LAUGH IT OFF

YOU MOVE ON

YOU REALIZE YOU DON'T

HAVE AS LONG

 

CHORUS

ALL THE ANGELS ARE GONE

ITS JUST ME TRYING TO SAVE ME

HAS BEEN FOR SO LONG

A KIND HEART TOO EXPOSED

SOON GETS USED

ITS HARD TO WORK IT OUT

IT ALL GETS SO CONFUSED

ALL THE ANGELS ARE GONE

WHERE DID THEY GO

THEY LEFT SO FAST

THEY LEFT A LINGERING GLOW

 

HARDENED BY TIME

YOUR FAITH SHAKEN

ALL YOUR TRUST IS GONE

IS IT JUST ME

YOU'LL NEVER SEE

SO MUCH OF YOU IN MY HEART

WE SHOULD OF KNOWN

 FROM THE START 

IT WOULD BE LIKE NOTHING

WE EVER HAD

EVER KNEW

NEVER THOUGHT WE'D DO

TIME STILL FILLS THE NIGHT

FARAWAY FROM DAYLIGHT

A LITTLE MIST

A HANDFUL OF STARS 

AND THERE YOU ARE

RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE

WONDERING WHO AND WHAT

STOLE ALL YOUR TIME

BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW 

JUST HOW FAST

THE TIME WOULD GO

 

WHERE TO TURN

WHERE TO GO

MORE THAN HALFWAY

TO SOMEWHERE

BUT IS IT

WHERE YOU WANT TO BE

EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS

 CHANGING

MAKING IT A DIFFERENT

 DESTINATION

THE PLACES YOU KNEW

ARE GONE

JUST NOT THERE

ITS BEEN TOO LONG

JUST NOT THERE

YOU DON'T BELONG

 

FAMILIARITY SO OBSCURED

ARE YOU COMING

OR ARE YOU GOING

YOU'RE NOT SURE

IF THERE'S A CURE

FOR THIS

BUT RIGHT UP TO THE END

YOU CAN SAY YOU TRIED

YOU FLEW THROUGH

THE DARKNESS

TO FIND THE LIGHT

WAITING UNTIL THE TIME

WAS JUST RIGHT

YOU COULD YOU MIGHT

BE THERE
