Still in Elsewhen

Crazy times,
And I think you knew...
Yes I think you knew
We were there to try something new.
Shifting sands under a September sky,
I loved you from the start
And I didn't even know why.
Even now
When I think of you and the things you said,
I get a funny feeling in my head...
I remember the excitement way back then,
And I know for sure...
I'm still in Elsewhen...
I'm still in Elsewhen.

Flames crackled in the dark of night,
Your words sounded old
But I knew they were right.
I decided to follow you
Into the heart of the Dream,
When you threw me that frisbee
I wanted to scream.
I screamed for joy,
I screamed to the sun,
Yes you made me believe
We could touch everyone.
I saw the future
For the first time in my life,
I saw us all together, living the rainbow life.
They say it's silly,
They laugh at us now...
They say I'm just a dreamer
Trying to "Be Here Now."
But they weren't there and they just don't know,
I saw the light above blowing through your soul.
And when I remember
How I felt back then,
I know for sure...
I'm still in Elsewhen...
I'm still in Elsewhen.

Yes I'm still in Elsewhen,
I tell you it's in my soul,
I can't help it... it's all I know.
You were there too and I know you know,
We entered a Dream
That just doesn't grow old...
It just doesn't grow old.

You put your arms around me
You always gave me a hug,
Whenever I tried to get away
I felt a little tug.
I was meant to be in your circle,
You were meant to be in mine,
Your words were like a magnet
drawing me back in Time.
In your voice
There was something that was ancient,
In your eyes
There was so much that was wise.
Yes, you were my friend...
Your love seemed bigger than the sky.
And when I think of that love
And what it meant to me then,
I have to admit...
I'm still in Elsewhen...
I'm still in Elsewhen.

Yes I'm still in Elsewhen,
I tell you it's in my soul,
I can't help it... it's all I know.
You were there too and I know you know,
We entered a Dream
That just doesn't grow old...
It just doesn't grow old.

Elsewhen was love that we couldn't deny,
Elsewhen was people reaching for the sky.
Elsewhen was a feeling, it was a state of mind,
It was knowing you were part of something bigger than Time.
It was a crack of lightning,
It was the sound of thunder,
It was like One Hand Clapping,
It was being open to wonder.
It was the search for a moment,
Outside of time,
Where each in our circle
Could touch the other side.
Not one of us, not two of us
But all of us together...
Stumbling through Life's mysteries
But doing it together.
Brothers and sisters
loving one another...
Brothers and sisters
focused on the Center.
And now friends
When I look back then,
I know without a doubt...
I'm still in Elsewhen...
I'm still in Elsewhen.

I wish I could tell you all
How I feel,
There's so little time for us now.
Still, I miss you all
I wish you were near...
I laughed more ofter then... when you were near,
Yes, I laughed alot back then...
When you were near.

Eventually it all drifted away...
Like grains of sand through our hand,
Time slipped away.
Like grains of sand through our hand,
Eventually it all slipped away...
Time just slipped away.
And who's to say
It should've been any other way,
What difference does it make anyway...
When I realize what you gave to me back then,
I know for sure...
I'm still in Elsewhen...
I'm still in Elsewhen.

Yes, I'm still in Elsewhen,
I tell you it's in my soul,
I can't help it... it's all I know.
You were there too and I know you know,
We entered a Dream
That just doesn't grow old...
It just doesn't grow old...
My friends, the Dream just doesn't grow old.
