CAPRICORN RISING

I was born as Capricorn

Rose in the evening sky

Eleven degrees out to the east

A time of endless sky

Once, time rolled like jelly

It crept its way in slow

It showed me far horizons

That glittered just like gold

I walked beside the ocean

And held my mother's hand

My soul was new inside my skin

Time was different then

Then one day, it shifted

Like someone closed a door

But how could I forget it

That place of open shore

I think of the beginning

When I had open eyes

I think of the beginning

When I had endless sky

I wish I could go back there

And trade this earthly gold

I wish I could go back there

To watch it all unfold

Dreams were just like memories

I felt them rushing in

Dreams were just like memories

They told me everything

Time, the rarest sunken treasure

Time, the darkest depths

Time is just a dream, I think

A dream that can't be kept.
