    Story Behind the Song
    Another song that has been around a long time (about 1994). We almost recorded it with Jester's Crown, but it was a 9-minute epic and we always decided against putting too much work into it. So...this year I made some major cuts (music, not lyrics) and it now clocks in under 6 minutes. I don't think you'll miss a bit...

    Lyrics
    Raindrops dripping, a cascade down wooden sides
    Cool winds blowing, twitching maples come alive
    The sunlight dancing on the waters just below
    Like liquid diamonds set adrift
    For the afternoon show
    I lay quietly at rest for now
    From the sweeping world outside
    Sweating out the final days of a crazy summer's ride
    And the only thing that comes to mind
    When I think of where I've been
    Is just where my feet would take me now if I leave here once again

    Are you running from reality?
    Do you really seek maturity?
    Peter Pan flies across the sea
    In children's dreams and fantasies

    Daylight weakends, giving way to starry nights
    Moonbeams glisten, all around the warm firelight
    This rite of passage has begun for everyone
    In the safe harbors of our lives
    Where nothing ever gets done
    I look forward to starting out again
    On the free road up ahead
    Wondering if I'll get it right or I'll go too far instead
    But the only thing I know for sure
    When I stop to look around
    Is that in passing I will learn the place where the fortunes can be found

    (chorus)

    For in freedom we're exposed
    And in safety we are chained
    Two poles and two extremes
    To balance somewhere in between
    For in facing the opposed
    The questions still remain
    Reality and dreams
    We balance somewhere in between

    (repeat)

    In passing through extremes
