[Music & Words: Jon Oliva, Al Pitrelli, Paul O'Neill] Times were changing Eighteen years and fading Ain't a lot of time left to be a star On an island All alone and dying Walk upon the water But you won't get far Dreams and visions Tied into decisions Saw you on a postcard From the other side Hope and glitter Never feeling bitter Walk upon the water Just to be your bride Don't tell me now That there is nothing more There is a how Just like there is a door And if there's not to be another way You tell me why Why Why Stay and follow If the words are hollow Gotta' go along Cause it's all you got Each day earn them Turn around and burn them Think your fitting in But you hope you're not Neatly drowning Every drink your downing If you drink enough You'll forget the game Each illusion Wrapped in absolution Live your life in weekends But it's not the same Don't tell me now That there is nothing more There is a how Just like there is a door And if there's not to be another way You tell me why Why Why Why AND AS HE STOOD THERE CURSING FATE FOR MAKING LIFE SO HARD IT SEEMED THAT FATE HAD LISTENED FOR SHE DEALT ANOTHER CARD FOR ARRIVING IN THE HARBOUR SILHOUETTED AGAINST THE SKY
