                Inside the oceans of sweet dreams
                there's places you can't run nor walk
                and you get caught up in a stream
                on a slumber boat of scattered thoughts
                You see a face there you adore
                and she offers you her breast
                you reach for her but she's no more
                oh she looked so much like Beth

                I live with memories locked in mind
                since I laid her soul to rest.
                and my heart aches for a time,
                a time, for life after Beth.

                The search for inner peace of mind
                on the narrow trail to light
                comes with a rough and rocky climb
                through passages of love and strife.
                You find a goal to set you free
                to share until the shades of death
                and you give your soul to your needs
                but you give your heart to Beth

                I live with memories locked in mind
                since I laid her soul to rest.
                and my heart aches for a time,
                a time, for life after Beth.

                This is strictly ficticious!

*Smiling*  Take away the disclaimer, and leave us to our imaginations!  It's a beautiful song, Eric...quite lovely.
