The Barely Acceptable Truth of Knowing II
Valensia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Alive in a veil of secrecy
The mystery in me
Avoids the inquisitions overseas
Rendezvous on earth somewhere in time
Why and where you came from - undefined
Moon over your soul
Silhouettes in disguise grow old
Is almost unacceptable
The roaring silence within
The menace of the crowded void
Alive! And we′re a child in time
Livin' it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin′ it over and over
Alive!
Pass a saffron membrane open wide
And fly in chrysanthemum delight
Speak, sanhedralite
Of phoenix incarnations to arise, arise
The savor of an aeons' gloriole
A sigh for the Kosmos on the whole
Color fusion glows
A macro cosmic kiss is all she knows
The truth of knowing it all
Is almost unacceptable
The roaring silence within
The menace of the crowded void
Alive! And we're a child in time
Livin′ it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin′ it over and over
Alive! And we're a child in time
Livin′ it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin' it over and over
Don dee don-don, bells are ringing out
Don de don-don, for my baby now
Alive! And we′re a child in time
Livin' it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin′ it over and over
Alive! And we're a child in time
Livin' it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin′ it over and over
Alive! And we′re a child in time
Livin' it over and over
Alive! We climb the stairway of time
Givin′ it over and over
Alive!

Don de don-don, for my baby now
Bells are ringing out for my loved one
