I took a? long hard look  At the heroes of my youth.  And their antics on the page there on  Can no longer sustain me  Ever since I was a boy  They brought me joy  But the shackles of the way I was  Can no longer contain me    It was exciting  And enlightening  Reverberating through my dreams  Goodbye to reality  And set a course for wayward schemes.    Now I can't sing  I can't feel  I don't know what is real.  I was travelling through the past for years  Tell me what's my destination  Now the past is gone  I don't even have a song  We've not sung before  To a closing door  Tell me what's my situation?    I saw the film,  I lived the book  I got the haircut  That's all it took  But now I know it's going to take  A little more now I'm awake    I took along hard look  Now I'm waiting for the phone to ring  I glance at the inbox  Is there any tantalising mail there in  There was lust in my restless heart  But now I know what true love means  Goodbye to reality  And set sail for dreamsy
