There are strange signs in the air tonight The walls creep close Surrounded by liquid shapes and shadows The minstrel is convincing tonight To me and to the forms that fly Invisible below the ceiling Covered in layer upon layer of memories I know I can't silence the screaming But not even that can trouble me right now I feel a sudden warmth, I'm outside time and tears A strange place where I can laugh at my fears Knowing that the spirits are Just outside the field of my view Protecting me Showing me a world that is not yet totally desolate There is more to my soul than to my eyes I am strong, like the eagle I'll rise I will seek high and low, quest for quest's sake I will shape my own path to travel for evermore Through within to beyond I feel a sudden warmth, I'm outside time and tears
A strange place where I can laugh at my fears And if right now I would lay my life In a brother's hand Then perchance one day I could lay it in the hand of she Who dances on the hill Tomorrow may still come I will reach for the hot core that I've felt still living There is more on the inside Maybe even a little to share And maybe even for the Wanderer there'll be A homely fireside before the world is bare There is more to my soul than to my eyes I am strong, like the eagle I'll rise I will seek high and low, quest for quest's sake I will shape my own path to travel for evermore ...To my soul than to my eyes I am strong, like the eagle I'll rise I will seek high and low, quest for quest's sake I will shape my own path to travel To trave.... to travel for evermore Through within to beyond
