Story Behind the Song
..there is a legacy left behind from all to all who would follow..
Lyrics
Here is a rhyme, no more words, just atmosphere.
Enter the Mime, without a sound the time draws near.
When you feel, not hear the sound, it says to you, "Get up!"
You start again, there is no end.
The stilly sound of silence now says to you, "Get out!"
Drink deep from the stream, that wells within your dream.
He's hollow inside, he doesn't know now what to do.
He's broken his stride, now that he's lain eyes on you.
Falling deeper in love.
Falling deeper in love.
Enthralled so deeply in love.
Falling deeper...
Hearing the rhyme, still no words just atmosphere.
Seeing the Mime...
The Mime has retired, he slips on shallow atmosphere.
So old and tired, he walks away from doubt and fear.
Can you touch what you can't see?
They say that there's no way.
A trick of the ear, that you can't hear.
But he walks away, with a smile upon his face.
He remembers the times, he performed his mime.
And he wanders through a haze, on the stages that he's played.
Reliving the past, empty hourglass.
And he tells the tale of one born upon the wing.
To sail the sky, never asking why.
Here is the rhyme, the Mime has left, but he's still near.
He's now part of time, and when you need him he'll be here.
He lives in our hearts, in visions he so well portrayed.
When you play your parts, he'll be with you to lend you aid.
Oh, the Mime, he is near.
Oh, the Mime, he's still here.
