Ayreon - Bay of Dreams lyrics

The water breaks the golden sunrays
Silver dances on the waves but a memory
I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory

I still feel the rising tides embrace me
Carrying me to a place unknown but a memory
I remember all the love they gave me
In this fluid world we call our home
But a memory

Beneath the waves we were invincible
In a world without frontiers

Beneath the waves we were inseparable
In a world without walls

Faces of cerulean oceans
Mirroring stars and sable skies
But a memory
How I miss the scent of sweet emotions
Of a world so pure, devoid of cries
But a memory

Face the facts, there is no way back
Arise! It's time to act
Face the facts, our future is black
Arise, we´re on the wrong track

Water breaks the golden sunrays
Silver dances on the waves but a memory
I often dream about the old days
Playing hide and seek within the caves
But a memory

Beneath the waves we were inseparable
