lyrics

So far, so close

I have passed through many lives
and of all the clouds that passed me by
only a puddle survives...
but the puddle reflects the skies.
A sunset is as beautiful as a sunrise.

So far, so close.

Come a little closer baby,
leave the rest of the world behind.
You don't need those plastic teachers
to polish your crystal mind.
If you're gonna follow someone,
don't follow the blind.
The truth is often friendly,
but it isn't always kind.

So far, so close.
It doesn't matter what you fake, you break, you take;
you can't know you've been sleeping until you're awake.

If you're lost in the labyrinth, take my hand.
What you love is more important than what you understand.
I used to believe in God's plan,
until I arrived at a great surprise:
God has no plan...
He prefers to improvise!

So far, so close.

Well, the face in the mirror
doesn't look much like mine;
but the grapes of wrath must be crushed
to blossom into wine...
more human is more divine!

So far, so close.
It doesn't matter what you fake, you take, you break;
you can't know you've been sleeping until you're awake.
