Step this way my friend we have to mark the line somewhere We're really pushed for time that's why we brought you here today This wasn't meant for you, it was meant for someone else But try this one for size for the rest of your life (Inside me) I'm almost there (Beside me) At the cellar stairs yeah (Day nine) Ooooh just a little more (Day nine) Be out here soon enough (Day nine) Try and walk today (Day nine) Life's a crazy game Heaven, freedom, always, always Heaven, freedom, always, always Walking down the roads The backstreets of time Picking up the scent Of a happier time Not a moment pa**ed When I stopped and thought Ooh this was foolish play Just a youthful export But oh my, what a fool I've become To play tricks on myself That a journey through The land of dreams could be free At the halfway house It was already too late There were gifts of wine, and women, and song But by the time the Lord Had touched my open hand Three score years had pa**ed Each one had it's song But oh my, what a fool I've become To play tricks on myself That a journey through The land of dreams could be free But oh my, what a fool I've become To play tricks on myself That a journey through The land of dreams could be free But oh my, what a way to deceive They just offer to you The land of dreams for free The land of dreams In the land of dreams Never time to be free What have I become In that land of dreams
