Part real, part dream; part present, part past. A search for the future that in some way we all take part in. The danger of relying on anything found outside ourselves.

lyrics

DRIVE ON

Riding along to the end of my road, dreaming as I drove, of the beginning
When the unborn me swam in the soft embrace of the water of life.

Steering a path through the ruts in my dreams and choosing a path round the potholes
I fought with the wheel to stay on the road and find the address where my future still waits.

Yet try as I might I can't recall the details of those early years
Of the stories I built to hide the truth of my unhappy launch into life.

As darkness fell, and the road passed beneath I spotted an odd looking house
The windows were shuttered, the garden a mess but something said go on, there's nothing to lose.

So on up the drive I went, knocked on the door
And waited for something to happen and
After a while, the door opened slowly; an old
Figure appeared I knew but couldn't name.

I stuttered my greeting, he listened so quiet,
And when I had finished he beckoned me close
Fainter than a whisper, louder than silence,
He said . . . . . drive on, drive on, drive on, drive on, drive on.
