State of Mind
Verse 1
To see the world through two new eyes,
I wonder what to think and how it all will shape my life,
Still reconciling my surprise,
A new responsibility creates a sense of pride,
Pre-refrain
And as we work hard to adapt,
To what has changed our circumstance,
It’s not the same as in the past,
A new love growing, built to last,
A stronger bond in all we have...
Chorus
The dark, the light, a state of mind,
Events unplanned, additions, passages of time,
Things that should have happened or came late,
I accept it as my destiny, my fate
Other Bridge (kind of...)
Close the door, turn out the lights,
Pay the price to do things right,
Moving forward, running blind,
Pleasure is a state of mind.
Verse 2
An empty nest, the birds have flown,
A message on a mobile phone to tell me I’m alone,
Pressure build up, breaking point,
No way to see it coming or prevent it on my own,
Pre-refrain
And as I try to understand,
To come to terms, and work it out,
I wonder, what’s the word for that these days,
The clever line, the buzz-word phrase,
That makes it all OK,
Chorus
The dark, the light, a state of mind,
Events unplanned, additions, passages of time,
Things that should have happened or came late,
I accept it as my destiny, my fate
Other Bridge (kind of...)
Close the door, turn out the lights,
Pay the price to do things right,
Sanctuary, a place to hide,
That was the last thing left to find.
