The Apparition

(Harris, Gers)

Now I'm here can you see me, 'Cos I'm out on my own
When the room goes cold tell me you can feel me...'cos I'm here
Here I am can you see me, passing through on my way
To a place I'd been to only in my dreams... before

In a world of delusion, never turn your back on a friend
'Cause you can count your real true friends on one hand...through life

There are those that deceive you, there are those that'll let you down
Is there someone out there that would die for you... thought not

Live your life with a passion, everything you do, do well
You only get out of life what you put in... so they say

In a world of confusion, people never say what they mean
If you want a straight answer, go look for one... right now

In a room full of strangers, do you stand with your back to the wall
Do you sometimes feel like you're on the outside... looking in?

You can make your own luck, you create your destiny
I believe you have the power if you want to... it's true

You can do what you want to, if you try a little bit harder
A little bit of faith goes a long way... it does

Are we here for a reason? I'd like to know just what you think
It would be nice to know what happens when we die... wouldn't it?

There are some who are wise, there are some who are born naive
I believe that there are some that must have lived before... don't you?

As for me well I'm thinking, you gotta keep an open mind
But I hope that my life's not an open and shut case

Extra sensory perception, life after death, telepathy
Can the soul live on and travel through space and time?

You know I feel so elated, 'cause I'm about to find it out
And when I know all the answers maybe I'll come back... to fill you in

You don't be alarmed now, if I try to contact you
If things go missing or get moved around... it's me

And don't disbelieve it, no matter what your 'friends might say
We'll meet up again some place, some way.... one day
