When you're awake, the things you think
Come from the dreams you dream.
Thoughts have wings, and lots of things
Are seldom what they seem.
Sometimes you think you've lived before
All that you've lived today.
Things you do come back to you
As if they know they way.
Oh, the tricks your mind can play.
It seems we've stood and talked like this before.
We looked at each other in the same way then,
But I can't remember where or when.
The clothes you're wearing
are the clothes you wore.
The smile you are smiling, you were smiling then,
But I can't remember where or when.
Some things that happen for the first time
Seem to be happening again.
And so it seems as if we've lived before
And laughed before, and loved before,
But who can say where or when.
