You lived the life
you dreamed the dream
You built the wall
that stands between
Blocked out the light
that gave you hope
Withdrew your words
before you spoke
You watched the world
slip out of your hands
And you laughed
and you cried
and that made it all
worthwhile
and you hoped
and you prayed
that your world
would never change
but all that it's become
is Avalon
You made your home
where kings have died
There's no romance
now you've seen the light
You thought you'd found
the land of dreams
Sometimes a paradise
is not what it seems
You watched the world
slip out of your hands
And you laughed
and you cried
and that made it all
worthwhile
and you hoped
and you prayed
that your world
would never change
but all that it's become
is Avalon
All that remains
are memories and lies
Nothing stays the same
And you laughed
and you cried
and that made it all
worthwhile
and you hoped
and you prayed
that your world
would never change
but all that it's become
is Avalon
