Song Description

busy lyrical outburst of fulfilment upon finding the right person

Lyrics

from fear and confusion, from deep disillusion to loving and certainty
from windswept and tossed to a bridge that is crossed from despair to reality
from low spirits all bending and tearfall unending to gladness that knows no bounds
from a heart that was broken to trusting unspoken where limitless joy resounds
you're the pleasure of living in dreams where reality's all that it seems
and I love your eyes

from reluctance and fear, from obscure and unclear, to perfection and clarity
from the depths of despair, from unable to share, to belief in eternity
from forever alone and an empty unknown to a something that feels so right
from the dark and unseen to the soft and serene, from oblivion to the light
you're the pleasure of living in dreams where reality's all that it seems
and I love your eyes

from a world indistinct, from a chain yet unlinked, to an entity and a whole
from a meaningless search, from just left in the lurch, to a destiny and a goal
from the trough of despond, from the back of beyond, from surrendering helplessness
from a first to a last, from a woebegone past to a future and happiness
you're the pleasure of living in dreams where reality's all that it seems
and I love your eyes
