Wandering in a daze

Through a cold mechanical maze

I am lost and confused

I am always the loser

You tell me there's a place

Where I can be alive

Is it near is it far is it somewhere between

The land you say exists that I've never seen

Call me please talk to me tell me the truth

I need to believe like a house needs a roof

Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know

Do you have a picture that you can show

The minute to capture the moment has come

The minute to capture the moment has come

It's easy to believe

But less easy to imagine

I've grown so used to not coping

Waiting eternally hoping

Wishes come and go

But this one will stay I know

Could the time for adventure be

Just around the corner

Is it near is it far is it somewhere between

The land you say exists that I've never seen

Call me please talk to me tell me the truth

I need to believe like a house needs a roof

Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know

Do you have a picture that you can show

The minute to capture the moment has come

The minute to capture the moment has come

I wonder if it's true

Do I put my faith in you

Do I risk one more failure

To add to this tale

Or do I turn my back

And slowly walk away

Please tell me if you know

Is it near is it far is it somewhere between

The land you say exists that I've never seen

Call me please talk to me tell me the truth

I need to believe like a house needs a roof

Is it strange is it wonderful I need to know

Do you have a picture that you can show

The minute to capture the moment has come

The minute to capture the moment has come
