Avantasia - Journey to Arcadia lyrics

A lonely boy, a handful of dreams
Cold wind blows through a heart wired-in
Open skies he would explore
No there ain't no mastery
Of a passion and a deep blue love

Yearn to see far away places
One day he'd feel two hearts collide
In his eyes tears and desire
But he prays and he swears every night
One day scales will fall from her eyes

Just with a dream
Just with a dream and with a song
On my own I may stumble and fall
It don't matter at all
When you're blessed with
Just what's yet to come, what's yet to come

Burning feet on the ground
Get your head in the clouds
You're out to find Arcadia
And you know you will stand
What you can't comprehend journey to Arcadia

The more I've seen I understand
That there ain't nothing that I know
As I awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show

When dogs run barking and I
Don't hear no sound
And the sky is as blue as
Eyes have never seen it
Then I remember what I'd have been dying for
Faith rescue my dream
From a role that I've been put in
On their screen

Your eyes, and as I'll look into your eyes
We're at the crack of dawn
Life will stop telling lies
And destiny will know it's just you and I

Burning feet on the ground
Got my head in the clouds journey to Arcadia
And I know I will stand
What I can't comprehend journey to Arcadia

The more we see we understand
That there's a lot that we don't know
As you awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show

Far from eye but close to heart
No matter how we try
Can't repel the counterpart
Our common bond we can't defy

I've seen them standing at the crossroads
When they were waiting for a sign
And they unlearned to face the silence
As they unlearned to turn inside

You're turning to the sky
And you're dying for an angel
If you want it bad enough see those eyes
That's where two glances collide

Learn to breathe, learn to crawl
Learn to stand, walk and fall
Learn to lose and to love
To believe, rise above
Love is more than to love

Burning feet on the ground
Got your head in the clouds
You're out to find Arcadia
And you know you will stand
What you can't comprehend journey to Arcadia

The more I've seen I understand
That there ain't nothing that I know now
As I awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show
