This song illustrates the elasticity of time and the re-emergence of things, people and places from long ago appearing in their past forms.
Within the Labyrinth of Dreams storyline, encounters with loved ones who have died are seen as a guiding force to help me find my way out of the dream world.
Dedicated to the memories of my grandmother Lillian Campbell and my friend Linda Kuhlman.
lyrics
All I thought was long gone
Still lingers on
Familiar faces from my past return…
Inside of my dreams…
The ancient and the recent
Seem combined
Lost in Time…
I'm torn between this solace and the deluge of my tears
At these Astral Echoes of the past that I once held dear
The living ghosts of those that I have lost
Now Visit me again, and the boundaries of life and death have now been…
Crossed in my dreams
And places defying reason
Seem combined
All through time
Somehow it seems
These traces of the people
In my mind
Are now entwined
And the faces of the ones that I have lost
so many years ago
Are returning from the other side
And somehow they point the way for me to go
Their spirits have become my guides
Inside of my dreams…
The ancient and the recent
Seem combined
Lost in Time…
Somehow it seems
These traces of the people
In my mind
Are now my guides
