Strawbs - Simple Visions lyrics

rate me

Simple visions come to me<br />

I was blind but now I see<br />

Simple visions of my soul<br />

Cut in pieces now I'm whole.<br />

<br />

Simple visions from the heart<br />

Once I faltered at the start<br />

Simple visions of my past<br />

Seldom first but never last.<br />

<br />

Time will mend this broken heart<br />

For fate decreed that we must part<br />

One for all and all in vain<br />

It would be marvellous to see you again.<br />

<br />

Simple visions in the night<br />

Walk on air in coloured light<br />

Simple visions lost in time<br />

Come and see the rainbow line<br />

<br />

Let us conjure magic from the moon<br />

Raise the phantom tide and swell the stream<br />

Sweep away the bridge on which we stand<br />

Bind the lovers' knot and find the dream.<br />

<br />

Let us make a pact beneath the stars<br />

Intertwine our limbs like windswept trees<br />

Tearing in the passion of the storm<br />

Spent in harmony like autumn leaves.<br />

<br />

Let us make deep cuts and mix our blood<br />

Sacrifice the mockingbird above<br />

Soaring on the wings of paradise<br />

Simple visions of a perfect love.
