by the light of the fire

you watch the snowflakes falling

it's the plight of desire

into despair you've fallen



while you look for a reason

an explanation for why we are

caught in perpetual seasons

drifting alone through a sea of stars



in the fullness of time, I found that

all the choices are mine

i will decide my own destiny

In the fullness of time



into the heart of the sun

the final journey's just begun

and while we're looking back on our lives

I'll be right there to wipe those tears from

your eyes



now please consider these answers

let us dispense with confusion

the king, the beggar, the dancer

the changing face of illusion



lingering questions, they slip away like a winters night

replaced by solemn perceptions

new understandings of wrong and right



in the fullness of time, I found that

all the choices are mine

I will decide my own destiny

In the fullness of time



we lose the fear, and find the secret

i'll turn the tables and take a stand

i won't be taken in

by a sleight of hand



i'll raise my hand against the powers

rally the troops and seize the tower

throw open wide the gate

on the Armageddon hour



i'm telling you now

let's get it on, they're gonna stand down

open wide the gate

on the Armageddon hour



and once the story's told

and we've crossed the last threshold

the wheels begin to turn and

the fire of passion burns



ah, we'll share eternity

ah, the lake of memory



and once we've found the force

we'll reunite of course

i can feel the time is right

we'll walk into the light

ah, we'll share eternity

ah, the lake of memory

ah, we'll share eternity

ah, the lake of memory
