Текст песни: Stranger In Your Soul / Bridge Across Forever + перевод

Once, not so long ago

I lived far below

Where you are

I didn’t even know

Home was far a way

I was sleeping wide-awake

Breaking down

Waiting for the sound

But I can hear it now

Is it all too late

'Cause I would sell my dreams

If I could be awake

If I could be awake

There — waking into walls

Piercing through the pain

Here we are

Reaching through the rain

I almost caught a glimpse

To feel that Sunday high

I would fall

This makes no sense at all

But I can hear it now

Not a single word

Though I’d strain my voice

I cannot be heard

Outside the smile

The insider breaks

And I would give my dreams

If I could be awake

Whatever you’re looking for

Don’t ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up 'cause this is your time

II. Hanging in the Balance

Go where you’re going to

You can rule your mind

You will not decay

Decay is always waiting

You’ve got nowhere to go

So you look behind

What you sought to find

Is always fading

Wish to be wishless

Less can live evermore

More doesn’t satisfy

The deeper feeling

Lose if you want to find

Find what you’re looking for

For all your dreams can live

Live as if to satisfy the meaning

Whatever you’re looking for

Don’t ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up 'cause this is your time

Drink in the big dream

Dream but you have to wait

Wait 'til you get it right

Write down every letter

Paint with the broadest strokes

Stroke through the deepest sea

See what you have in mind

To make it better

Get in on the ground floor

Floor to ceiling is so high

High will become the low

It will make sense

Want always wants some more

More is never enough

Enough is enough

Remember life is hanging in the balance

Whatever you’re looking for

Don’t ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up 'cause this is your time

III. Lost and Found Part 2

Don’t you think if you could be lost

Don’t you think you can be found

Don’t you think if you were the world, you’d turn it around

Don’t you think if you could be lost

Don’t you think you can be found

Don’t you think if you were the world, you’d turn it around

Solo

Whatever you’re looking for

Don’t ever start looking behind

Whatever you want to change

You better start changing your mind

'Cause everything can be done

Stand up

Stand up 'cause this is your time

2. Bridge Across Forever

There’s a bridge made of light

That crosses between death and life

Where shadows walk in the sun

And desperate lovers run

One day a child and an angel

Stood on either side

Of a magic river

That there was no crossing

But as they tried

The water began to rise

Then they raised their eyes

And as the river fell away

They built a bridge across forever

Between tomorrow and today

There is a bridge across forever

The bridge across forever

I’ve had this dream all my life

That doesn’t live in black and white

It never ends it just begins

In distant sands and magenta winds

And my love she is standing by the side

Of a magic river that there is no crossing

Maybe someday when our spirits begin to rise

And light fills our eyes

We will meet again someday

On the bridge across forever

I know that we will find our way

To the bridge across forever

Between tomorrow and today

There is a bridge across forever

I know that we will find our way

To the bridge across forever

3. Stranger In Your Soul

IV. Awakening the Stranger

In the time it takes to be lost or found

In the wake of something not for the crowd

Awakening the stranger in your soul

It isn’t always quite that easy

Awakening the stranger in your soul

All the rage the world goes on outside

It’s alright come in here — it’s safe to hide

Awakening the stranger in your soul

Is more than just a thought or feeling

There is no worldly danger beyond control

So much more than what we’re seeing

Awakening the stranger in your soul

V. Slide

Give up all the reasons that you know

Slide down where the time moves nice and slow

Ease back and relax

No figures and no fax

Awakening the stranger in your soul

It’s alright to give up your control

(come in where it’s safe-there is no I)

Move along we’ve paid your expressway toll

(look at all the others floating high)

It’s the 5: 00 am alarm (high and low)

No time to use your charm

Surrender is the only way to go

Awakening the stranger in your soul

No thought for yourself you just let go

Solo

VI. Stranger in Your Soul

When you come to make love, your only goal

Words cannot describe the feeling

Awakening the stranger in your soul

From the shadow to the deepest meaning

When you come to make love, your only goal

Words cannot describe the feeling

Now we’re here in full sight — we can be whole

Let’s dive

Let’s dive and never hit the ceiling

There — walking into walls

Piercing through the pain

Here we are

Reaching through the rain

I almost caught a glimpse

Brighter than the sky

A child grown

A stranger coming home

And I can hear it now

Every single word

And when I strain my voice

I will be assured

Outside there’s a storm

But here the big break

That I might chance to dream

That I be awake

Solo

Awakening the stranger in your soul
