Lyrics
Corner Of Your Mind
Imagine all the ties that we could bind
If we could just live together
Imagine if the sun was a rainy day
Imagine all the secrets we could learn
Imagine if the leaves never blew away
Imagination, an alchemical façade
A fabrication for a jester?s promenade
Imagine everything you have is cast
Into a fiery furnace
Imagine if the flames consumed your soul
Imagine if the tide could reveal and heal
The sores beneath the surface
Imagine if diamonds returned to coal
A conjuration, a simple slight of hand
A fascination with baubles made of sand
I believe, I believe in signs
Some things are better left unspoken
In the corner of your mind
Imagine if the Devil played a spade
To trump your ace of fortune
Imagine if a shadow was for the moon
Imagine if you saw her wearing him
Like he?s the latest fashion
Imagine them wrapped in their sin cocoon
Incarceration, a prison for the heart
Adjudication, two lovers split apart
I believe, I believe in signs
But they?re better left unspoken
In the corner of your mind
Emancipation to live another day
A proclamation from passion?s only play
I believe?
