I CAN HEAR ECHOES THOUGH INVISIBLE
ACROSS GREAT SPACES TRAVELING FAR
MY MIND'S EYE SEES THE VERY FIRST TASTE
MY MIND'S EARS HEAR A SONG SUNG IN HASTE
IS IT TOO SOON OR BETTER YET
MAY YOU KNOW NO REGRET
TOO CONFUSED AND CHAOTIC IT SEEMS
TOO FAR OFF THIS ELUSIVE MELODY
THE GATE LEFT OPEN
IS THERE STILL HOPE INSIDE OF ME
A NEW DISTRACTION I EMPLOYED
THE VERY SAME ONE I SHOULD AVOID
THE SAME STATE BY A NEW LIGHT IT BURNS
A MAGIC POTION LOST DIMINISHED IN TURNS
THE GATE LEFT OPEN
IS THERE STILL HOPE INSIDE OF ME
BEYOND THE FIELD A NEUTRAL GLOW
HUDDLED HOUSES WINDING ROADS
CLEAN AN EMPTY SPACE IN FRONT OF ME
SPREAD THE MAP OUT SO THAT I MIGHT SEE
A CONSTANT SHADOW HANGS ABOVE MY HEAD
MY CLOTHES DON'T SEEM TO FIT MY FEET ARE WET
THE GATE LEFT OPEN
IS THERE STILL HOPE INSIDE OF ME
TOO LATE THE KEY FOR ME
