Momentary Glimpse
A momentary glimpse of forest hung among the trees
Before you stands a doorway for which you are the key
Unlocked you're falling forward toward untold mysteries
All around resounding sounds of ancient histories
A momentary glimpse of magic tragically explained
Childhood wonder lost just once to never be regained
A father wants his son to know what it means to be a man
"You can't believe them fairy tales, son. I hope someday you'll understand"
A momentary glimpse of futures staring back at you
Just mirrors of the memories you thought you had outgrew
The past will always prologue, as the tail will wag the dog
The grinding gears of modern years, just wheels within the cog
A momentary glimpse of what I thought I wished would be
Neon lights on Broadway; my name on the marquee
But when I turned I learned the truth of what the cardinal taught to me
"There are none so blind my son as he who chooses what to see"
Before you stands a doorway for which you are the key
Unlocked you're falling forward toward untold mysteries
All around resounding sounds of ancient histories
A momentary glimpse of magic tragically explained
Childhood wonder lost just once to never be regained
A father wants his son to know what it means to be a man
"You can't believe them fairy tales, son. I hope someday you'll understand"
A momentary glimpse of futures staring back at you
Just mirrors of the memories you thought you had outgrew
The past will always prologue, as the tail will wag the dog
The grinding gears of modern years, just wheels within the cog
A momentary glimpse of what I thought I wished would be
Neon lights on Broadway; my name on the marquee
But when I turned I learned the truth of what the cardinal taught to me
"There are none so blind my son as he who chooses what to see"
