Lyrics Lavender - Avantasia , Bob Catley

They were taking small pains
To not make him realize
Made him feel he's different
Through and through
A monster in his own way
Communicative quarantine
Unleashed on the world without a clue
Surrounded by the ghosts of paling pictures
They come and slip away
Vivid memories roll and spin
If only they would suck me in
We're going up like fire in
Just the blink between the dream
And the memories and the embers
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
Breathing odour of lavender
And it's all coming back to me
Wish I didn't fail to say those
Words before you'd have to leave
A soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
Here I stand and survey
What the Father's cast my way
A wind got up to bode times of change
I close the door behind me
Know the day break is too far
Me and who I was, alone, estranged
Surrounded by the scent invoking pictures
Gone and yet so clear
Vivid memories roll and spin
If only they would suck me in
We're going up like fire in
Just the blink between the dream
And the memories and the embers
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
Breathing odour of lavender
And it's all coming back to me
Wish I didn't have to see now
What back then I didn't see
A soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
The crazy part ain't dreaming, wishing on a falling star
It's the world that's in between the cope and you
I close my eyes and see a magic world in sepia
That cast me out onto a road without a clue
We're going up like fire in
Just the blink between the dream
And the memories and the embers
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
We're going up like fire in
Just the blink between the dream
And the memories and the embers
Of what we'd hoped it all would be
Breathing odour of lavender
And it's all coming back to me
Wish I didn't fail to say those
Words before you'd have to leave
A soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
A soul, a storm, a journey across the waves, oh
A soul, a storm, a journey across the waves
