The Recollection Songtext
von Rick Wakeman
The Recollection Songtext
Memories of a life on earth go flashing past,
Of home, of Grauben,
friends of whom he′s seen his last
Contemplating what his life's been worth,
While trapped beneath the earth,
An embryo at birth.
Pain and fear destroy the beauty I have seen, Of caverns, where no other man has ever been
Silurian epoch hosts me as my grave,
My final blow I wave,
a life too late to save.
Crystals of opaque quartz, studded limpid tears,
Forming magic chandeliers, lighting blistered galleries.
Of home, of Grauben,
friends of whom he′s seen his last
Contemplating what his life's been worth,
While trapped beneath the earth,
An embryo at birth.
Pain and fear destroy the beauty I have seen, Of caverns, where no other man has ever been
Silurian epoch hosts me as my grave,
My final blow I wave,
a life too late to save.
Crystals of opaque quartz, studded limpid tears,
Forming magic chandeliers, lighting blistered galleries.
