Album: No Place Like Home (1986)

A Place In Time

Sometimes it seems ? it was never meant to be ?
the answers so unclear
That?s when it comes to mind -
another place in time
Only the truth to fear

Certain things that you don?t understand
Still your calling is your mind?s command
Someday you might see how
For the knowledge there?s a price you pay
The truth is never very far away
So who?s the victim now

When you get the feeling
that you?ve been here before,
maybe it?s just a feeling, or it?s something more,
like someone?s calling you

if you have the time I think
That you can find the key
To unlock the door into your own worst misery

Part of what you?re looking for
is deeply suppressed in your dreams
Picking up the pieces in ? nocturnal extremes
Nothing more ? deep inside
Hidden realities you never face
In your mind ? a place in time ? your innerspace

Close your eyes ? you are there
Happens as soon as you turn out the light
Without delay you?re on your way ?
lost in the night

Another world ? it?s another there
Keeping the balance between time and space
Leaving you with a memory that you can never erase

I?ve been screaming ? no repeal
Am I dreaming ? or is it real
Tell me?

Now and then you wake and you wonder while
It?s still fresh in your mind
And you don?t know where it is
This funny place you?ve been to
Another place in time

I?m obsessed ? afraid to rest
The feelings grow stronger and stronger
each day
Haunting me ? taunting me ? to go away
I?m growing weak ? afraid to speak
Still slipping further and further away
Coming back ? still intact ? but never to stay
I?ve been there ? what a scare
I caught a glimpse of the horror in store
A world of pain ? a world insane ? no metaphore
It?s another world ? another place
Keep the balance between time and space
Leaving you ? with a memory ?
you can never erase

I?ve been screaming ? no repeal
Am I dreaming ? or is it real
Tell me?
