lyrics
I'm your memory. I don't recall who you are.
I'm your fantasy, your illusion and your fading star.
I'm living in a world of masquerade
I'm watching you and I just can't help ascending, ascending.
I'm flying higher than your future and my past
attended by truth and deeper understanding.
The shape of the wind and the moving water, I'm addicted to it all.
The lightning and rain and the rolling thunder, I'm addicted to their call.
The power of life in your thoughts of wonder, I'm addicted to
the hand in the shade that points at the stars and the dream in your eyes.
What did you uncover in all those years?
You feed the land with greed and pain.
One after another you'll understand.
Just go with the flow and break this chain!
The shape of the wind and the moving water...
And you know what it's gonna be,
deep inside behind the lines of shadowplay and tragedy.
And you know it, better go for it, but you're standing still.
But nothing last forever, so may it be your will.
I'm addicted, addicted to it all. I'mm addicted to the the call, the call.
I'm addicted to the land, addicted to the sea,
addicted to the dream you used to be,
addicted to the days, addicted to the nights,
addicted to everything that feels so right,
addicted to colour, addicted to sound,
that's all it takes to make my world go 'round,
addicted to your taste, addicted to the rain,
I'm even addicted to faith again.
The shape of the wind and the moving water...
