Lyrics

There he lies, laid back, hands tied, in his world
He builds the stage, sets the scene, with his words

Those who stare are waiting for some long, lost place, alive in his mind
While we?re here we?ve come to see what we can find
Won?t you stay here for awhile?
And tell us another story in that style that keeps me here
captivated
I?m so captivated

In his words, fleeting moments, they?re born anew
Long lost places, startled faces, vivid hues

Come please sit back gramps and share your life with us
While we?re here, we?ve come to see what we can find
Won?t you stay here for awhile?
And tell us another story in that style that keeps me here captivated

Words will meet what their minds see when you speak
I?m so captivated

Though your past seems so far away, you can bring it back today
Speak to us and reveal to me pages from you history
If only for this moment when I lose myself in a memory
In reverence for the past and a glimpse of humanity
So far away you?re taking me
Through your eyes I long to see
The glory of life?s mystery
and grow?
