They Say

Let's make an exchange, an exchange of memories

Blindfold your eyes, child
So what's ahead can scare you
Set all your memories wild
And I'll collect them for you
Fables surround the stars
Stories of what is and was
I see beyond the far
And deep into your heart

They say that you'll reach paradise
Don't fade until you're lost to time, ooh
They say that all's in the gardens eye
And maybe, maybe I'll appear in your story tonight

Suffering and joy will both be added to the
Final draft of the story rеad to the planets, to the
Thousands of distant worlds
Whеre light burned, and skies unfurled
Talk not to the mirrors, let the silence guide you
To where the stars rest, a tuning to the one inside you
Like waves crashing into peaceful dreams
Beyond the end, you'll return to me, listen

They say that you'll reach paradise
Don't fade until you're lost to time, ooh
They say that all's in the gardens eye
And maybe, maybe I'll appear in your story tonight

Push past majestic gates
They say lapis writing, you'll read it
A Paramore of writhing fates
The plot of which a secret
Measure the world against yourself
I'll help you find your way
My child take all such things to heart
Now go before you stay, they, they

They say that you'll reach paradise
Don't fade until you're lost to time, ooh
They say that all's in the gardens eye
And maybe, maybe I'll appear in your story tonight
