Transcript
I must have fallen on my feet A hundred times or more I heard the wind blow down the street The knocking at the door But there was no wonder If I looked everywhere So was it all a dream?
All are we? The spirits of the past The costumes and the masks The shipwrecks and the ghosts Go up and down the coast They've all come back to see If we were meant to be We can't escape our dreams, howl away You must have followed me back home And hid behind my back No one could find me on their own
From off the beaten track Well I was scared before But I'm afraid no more And nothing's as it seems The Holy Spirit's of the past The costumes and the masks To me they don't disguise The presence in your eyes They turn their heads to sea If we were meant to be
A nightmare or a dream? Oh, how the high, the spirits of the past, the costumes and the masks, to be they down The sky, the presence in your eyes
They turn their heads to sea If we were meant to be A nightmare for a dream
That was the 60-second preview
