Eloy - Love Over Six Centuries lyrics
rate meI'll tell you who I am and whence I came,<br />
It's not going to be easy to explain<br />
By body has returned, my mind is all at sea<br />
Will you tell me who you are and where we're meant to be?<br />
She answers in an gentle, lilting style,<br />
Says little but speaks volumes with a smile<br />
With a sparkle in her eye, she takes me by the hand<br />
'Let us take a walk, I'll answer all I can.'<br />
Jamie:<br />
April, 1358...Paris...I don't understand any more... my name is<br />
Jamie...and mine is a strange story... one which even I don't fully<br />
understand...my father is a scientist... and he has been<br />
experimenting with time-eroding drugs... I was sitting in his<br />
workroom..it was late at night...and I was thinking... you know,<br />
about me and my future...I've just left school...and I don't know<br />
what I want to do...I must have somehow have taken the drug... and<br />
landed up here.<br />
Jeanne:<br />
My name is Jeanne . . and let me tell you my story . . my father owns<br />
many acres around here ... which are farmed by peasants ... whom he<br />
rules with an iron hand .. the neighbouring landlord's even worse<br />
... and I'm supposed to marry his son ... That's not my choice, you<br />
know, 'like father, like son'.<br />
Jamie:<br />
Well I see we've both got our problems ... perhaps we can help each<br />
other ... I've got something here... lots of my friends smoke it...<br />
I don't suppose you know it... try it, it helps at times like these...<br />
Jeanne:<br />
Oh what a beautiful feeling... everything shimmering in the<br />
twilight... look at that sunset... I've never seen such colours<br />
before... it all seems suspended in eternity... I wish moments like<br />
these would last forever... I'm not worried any more... what are you<br />
thinking?<br />
Jamie:<br />
I can't think at the moment... but I feel as if we've known each<br />
other for years... let's just enjoy it.<br />
Somehow we must stay together, lifelong friend, my lifelong friend,<br />
Love like ours will last forever, never end, and never end:<br />
We'll somehow wipe away our fears,<br />
And find a way bridge the years.
