LAURA'S GARDENS
( . o O DANCING ON THE WINGS OF FANTASY O o . )
it's been so long
since I let the inspiration reach inside
and inspire me to come out
it's been so long
since I let somebody touch me deep inside
and inspire me to come out
isn't that what life's about
or is it about making money
once upon a time just asking
would have been almost funny
now I wonder why I am
still such a lonely man
have I done the best I can
was there a master plan
who's in control
those who struggle with the power
those who take all they can take
those who face the final hour
who really knows
those who demand attention
or those who say they do
how about you?
it's been so long
since somebody understood me and I wonder
did anybody ever understand
it's been so long
since somebody could see through me and I wonder
is this what I had planned
was it my obscurity
or something that's done to me
will I ever really see
what the whole truth might be
so what is reality
and what is really fantasy
have we ever been free
or is it all destiny
who's in control
those who struggle with the power
those who take all they can take
those who face the final hour
who really knows
those who demand attention
or those who say they do
how about you?
It's Been So Long
(How About You?)
