A nostalgic look back contrasting the journey from youth to maturity.

Lyrics

There was a Time

Lines were drawn so straight and keen
The brush strokes young and the scenery green
Skies were painted in the bluest blues
Canvas doused in primary hues

Nothing dreamed ever seemed impossible
You found your truth in the improbable
Just then you felt so invincible
Inconceivably, remarkably, naive

There was a time when life seemed forever
There was a place where no troubles could go
Pyres of dreams, to awake, they endeavor
They may burn down, but the embers still glow
Rivers of dreams where the waters still flow

Digging deep, then deeper still
The lines soon curved from an abstract quill
Vision blurred, colors turned to gray
The path was blocked by a locked gateway

Thanks to love the bridge was crossable
Lost then found you we're unstoppable
Before then you felt so unlovable
Inconceivably, remarkably, naive

There was a time when love seemed forever
That is a grace everybody should know
Fires of love melting two hearts together
Where they burn down there a garden will grow
Sculptures of love rendered Art Nouveau
