SKYCLAD
"A Stranger In The Garden"

Silently gazing from the window
My mind detached from space and time
There is a secret only I know
A place where the city lights don't shine
Why don't you come up here with me?
Let Aphrodite take you by the hand
And we can tell the future how it should be
When we set sail for Alexander's land

A stranger in the garden
'Neath a full moon in the sky
This is the Old God's country
You can bring me here to die
It's a thinking man's Valhalla
A long weekend in paradise
Package tour to Eden
My spirit yearns for freedom

So leave your troubles far behind you
Take care not to pack them in your case
Your jaded spirits lifted, your body born anew
The minute golden sunlight hits your face
I'll fly as high as any eagle
Watch me now I soar above the sand
I get the strangest sense of deja-vu
When I set foot on Alexander's land

A stranger in the garden
'Neath a full moon in the sky
This is the Old God's country
You can bring me here to die
It's a thinking man's Valhalla
A long weekend in paradise
Package tour to Eden
My spirit yearns for freedom

I'm a stranger in the garden...

Is it reality?
Is it a dream?
Strangely intangible
Somewhere between
Frankly absurd and naively serene

My search goes on...
