Simple visions come to me
I was blind but now I see
Simple visions of my soul
Cut in pieces now I'm whole.
Simple visions from the heart
Once I faltered at the start
Simple visions of my past
Seldom first but never last.
Time will mend this broken heart
For fate decreed that we must part
One for all and all in vain
It would be marvellous to see you again.
Simple visions in the night
Walk on air in coloured light
Simple visions lost in time
Come and see the rainbow line
Let us conjure magic from the moon
Raise the phantom tide and swell the stream
Sweep away the bridge on which we stand
Bind the lovers' knot and find the dream.
Let us make a pact beneath the stars
Intertwine our limbs like windswept trees
Tearing in the passion of the storm
Spent in harmony like autumn leaves.
Let us make deep cuts and mix our blood
Sacrifice the mockingbird above
Soaring on the wings of paradise
Simple visions of a perfect love.
