Halcyon Breeze

was there a time far better than this
one of pure untainted bliss
if we only could be there
better to live now better to learn
taking good and bad in turn
always pressing on foursquare

chorus:
halcyon breeze
shiver the trees
fool the naive
don't take me for one
I follow the sun

open my heart open my eyes
to expose those subtle lies
leading me to clutch the past
was there a time far better than this
should I live to reminisce
when the tide may turn at last

chorus

in a moment I drift back in time
when the world and myself were in prime
as much as is seen through the rose
so it goes there is crime
there is grime

chorus
