Lyrics Journey To Arcadia - Avantasia

Journey To Arcadia

A lonely boy, a handful of dreams
Cold wind blows through a heart wired-in
Open skies he would explore
No there ain’t no mastery
Of passion and a deep blue love
Yearn to see far away places
One day he’d feel two hearts collide
In his eyes tears and desire
But he prays and he swears every night
One day scales will fall from her eyes
Just with a dream
Just with a dream and with a song
On my own I may stumble and fall
It don’t matter at all when you’re blessed with
Just what’s yet to come, what’s yet to come
Burning feet on the ground
Get your head in the clouds
You’re out to find Arcadia
And you know you will stand
What you can’t comprehend
Journey to Arcadia
The more I’ve seen I understand
That there ain’t nothing that I know
As I awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show
When dogs run barking
And I don’t hear no sound
And the sky is as blue
As eyes have never seen it Then I remember
What I’d have been dying for
Faith rescue my dream
From a role that I’ve been put in On their screen
Your eyes, and as I’ll look into your eyes
We’re at the crack of dawn
Life will stop telling lies
And destiny will know
It’s just you and I Burning feet on the ground
Got my head in the clouds
Journey to Arcadia
And I know I will stand
What I can’t comprehend
Journey to Arcadia
The more we see we understand
That there’s a lot that we don’t know
As you awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show
Far from eye but close to heart
No matter how we try
Can’t repel the counterpart
Our common bond we can’t defy
Oh, wishing on an angel
I’ve seen them standing at the crossroads
When they were waiting for a sign
And they unlearned to face the silence
As they unlearned to turn inside
You’re turning to the sky
And you’re dying for an angel
If you want it bad enough, see those eyes
That’s where two glances collide
Learn to breathe, learn to crawl
Learn to stand, walk and fall
Learn to lose and to love, to believe, rise above
Love is more than to love
Burning feet on the ground
Got your head in the clouds
You’re out to find Arcadia
And you know you will stand
What you can’t comprehend
Journey to Arcadia
The move I’ve seen I understand
That there ain’t nothing that I know now
As I awake on padded ground
The final curtain of the show
