In this age of grand illusion
|
You walked into my life
|
out of my dreams
|
I don't need another change
|
Still you forced away
|
into my scheme of things
|
|
You say we're growing,
|
growing heart and soul
|
In this age of grand illusion
|
You walked into my life
|
out of my dreams
|
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
|
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
|
Oh sweet name, I call you again
|
You're born once again for me
|
Just because I believe don't mean I don't think as well
|
Don't have to question everything
|
in heaven or hell
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
Lord, I kneel and offer you
|
my word on a wing
|
And I'm trying hard to fit
|
among your scheme of things
|
|
It's safer than a strange land
|
But I still care for myself
|
And I don't stand in my own light
|
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
|
like a word on a wing
|
|
My prayer flies
|
like a word on a wing
|
Does my prayer fit in
|
with your scheme of things?
|
|
In this age of grand illusion
|
You walked into my life
|
out of my dreams
|
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
|
Just as long as I can see, I'll never stop this vision flowing
|
I look twice and you're still flowing
|
Just as long as I can walk
|
I'll walk beside you, I'm alive in you
|
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
|
And I'm ready to shape the scheme of things
|
|
Ooh, ready to shape
|
the scheme of things [5 times]
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
