Valley of the Mind's Eye


Ma chere Josephine,
(My dearest Josephine,)

Que le monde a change depuis ma derniere lettre.
(How the world has changed since last I wrote.)

Ainsi ce soir je prends ma plume,
(So tonight I take up my pen,)

non pas pour m emerveiller
(not to marvel)
sur l epoque ou nous vivons,
(at these wondrous times,)

mais pour declarer l'amour
(but to declare the love)

qui est dans mon coeur.
(that is in my heart.)

If a song was a road
I would ride through the night to you
there s a moon on the rise
and I m drawn on the tide to you.
And I will be with you
and I will stay with you
and I will dream with you
if you need me to
anytime, anywhere
in a corner of your mind s eye

Planets will cool, Josie
tyrants will rule, Josie
I will be here for you
oceans divide, Josie
stars will collide, Josie
nations will rise and fall
and never see the world through these eyes.

Dreams of falling - dreams of flying.
a man who never dreams goes slowly mad.
The dawn of science, the age of reason.
This is the voyage of the mind s eye.

And I will be with you
I will stay with you
and I will dream with you
if you need me to
anytime, anywhere
in a corner of your mind s eye.
in a corner of your mind s eye.
