Eloy - Love Over Six Centuries lyrics

It's not going to be easy to explain

By body has returned, my mind is all at sea

Will you tell me who you are and where we're meant to be?

She answers in an gentle, lilting style,

Says little but speaks volumes with a smile

With a sparkle in her eye, she takes me by the hand

'Let us take a walk, I'll answer all I can.'

Jamie:

April, 1358...Paris...I don't understand any more... my name is

Jamie...and mine is a strange story... one which even I don't fully

understand...my father is a scientist... and he has been

experimenting with time-eroding drugs... I was sitting in his

workroom..it was late at night...and I was thinking... you know,

about me and my future...I've just left school...and I don't know

what I want to do...I must have somehow have taken the drug... and

landed up here.

Jeanne:

My name is Jeanne . . and let me tell you my story . . my father owns

many acres around here ... which are farmed by peasants ... whom he

rules with an iron hand .. the neighbouring landlord's even worse

... and I'm supposed to marry his son ... That's not my choice, you

know, 'like father, like son'.

Jamie:

Well I see we've both got our problems ... perhaps we can help each

other ... I've got something here... lots of my friends smoke it...

I don't suppose you know it... try it, it helps at times like these...

Jeanne:

Oh what a beautiful feeling... everything shimmering in the

twilight... look at that sunset... I've never seen such colours

before... it all seems suspended in eternity... I wish moments like

these would last forever... I'm not worried any more... what are you

thinking?

Jamie:

I can't think at the moment... but I feel as if we've known each

other for years... let's just enjoy it.

Somehow we must stay together, lifelong friend, my lifelong friend,

Love like ours will last forever, never end, and never end:

We'll somehow wipe away our fears,

And find a way bridge the years
