The Storyman - Chris De Burgh

I lived my life in the words of a
Storyman
Watched my dreams from the years gone by
Heard my voice in the songs of a
Storyman
Always by my side always by my side
I saw him first in a castle by candlelight
Turning round with a golden key
I heard a train far away and a whistle blow
Like a baby's cry 'twas like a baby's cry
Ravens stood on the walls of
Jerusalem
Sailors danced at the borderline
Light a fire on the road to the ferryman
Emotions running high in the summertime
Take me back to the places
I've never been
Take me back to another time
Take me back to a world
I have never seen
Only in my mind only in my mind
Late last night
I met up with a lady-love
Dressed in red didn't say goodbye
Carry me to the last time
I showed her what
Tender hands can do and
I'll be missing you
Take me back to the places
I've never been
Take me back to another time
Take me back to a world
I have never seen
Only in my mind only in my mind
Follow the light that's shining on to where we will be going
Up to Heaven
Paradise or to the heart divine
It's in the echoes of a child waiting for the journey
The spirit of one world
Oh take me back to the places
I've never been
Take me back to another time
Take me back to a world
I have never seen
Only in my mind only in my mind
I lived my life in the words of a
Storyman
