Chris De Burgh — The Storyman

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...
