英文摇滚歌曲：4th Dimension - Everlasting

Cold blows the wind, old memory bleeds?

Days I had left behind, drops of my life, scattered¹ leaves from the past,
Frozen in endless fall?
Fields where I walked, as a child, rain and sunshine
Strength and love flow on through time?

Hidden in Neverland, a beacon² still shines,
Answer?s there to be found, in the seasons long gone I will find who am I?

Echoes of simple joy, grief dignified³, daily deeds that uphold the circle of life
People I loved of yore, lorn now I mourn
Shedding a tear, I lose myself in remembrance?

Only pale shades remain, searching for sanctuary⁴ in me, everlasting⁵
I won?t deny the shadows, they?re a part of me meant to be everlasting?

Gift of a memory, feelings I?ll treasure inside
Snows of December and flowers of April are one with my soul
Warmth of a fire that burns deep within, tongues of flame leaping high,
Legacy⁶ of my blood I will never deceive?

Cold blows the wind, my history slowly unfolds?
Worn pages of life, one by one, bathe in the light
I?m not alone, a crossroads of dreams lives on through me?

Only pale shades remain, reaching the sanctuary in me, everlasting
I won?t deny the shadows, they dwell in me, making me everlasting?

Gift of a memory, feelings I?ll treasure inside
Snows of December and flowers of April are one with my soul
Warmth of a fire that burns deep within, tongues of flame leaping high,
Legacy of my blood I will never deceive?
