Stranger in a crowd Treading fire after dark Lost in a city Pulsing to the sound Of the spirit and soul A city that is breathing Living through the cables Alive across the wires Faces without names Playing devils and angels Lit up by the strobes Moving hypnotized I caught your reflection In the neon on glass An electric silhouette Against a static sky It's a beautiful dream It's a beautiful life It's just a reflection A world I must survive We're children of the past Who look beyond today Designing the present So when is the future We live in a dream Keeping visions alive It's just a reflection A world that never dies The image we create Now image we designed It's a beautiful life So when is the future Time moves so fast In a single direction Fighting with the present Racing from the past We're searching for something That can never satisfy The reality of answers When lives are on the line I've waited a lifetime For the age of wonder A place that I remember In a splinter of time A stranger in a strange land Caught in the flow Still searching for answers Among the neon lights It's a beautiful dream It's a beautiful life It's just a reflection A world we must survive We're children of the past Who look beyond today Designing the present So when is the future We live in a dream Keeping visions alive It's just a reflection A world that never dies The image we create Now image we designed It's a beautiful life So when is the future It's a beautiful dream It's a beautiful life It's just a reflection A world that must survive We're children of the past Who look beyond today Designing the present So when is the future We live in a dream Keeping visions alive It's just a reflection A world that never dies The image we create Now image we designed It's a beautiful life So when is the future
