Stuck Halfway?

...and they come in your dreams
...and they come, but you don't know what they mean,
just that some word to the waking world's
passed in between.

and they come, and they go
and they come,
but do you see what they show,
or wake at the station
without any sense where you've been?

(chorus)
You can forget the verses,
but hang on to the refrain
'cause if you get stuck halfway
it just intensifies the strain
but if you dream it over,
don't you think you're ready for the change?

It's for you, I believe,
don't have to stay, but there's a levy if you leave,
something to do with the use of the gifts you've received.

It's for you, if you'll go.
I think it's good, if that's what you want to know,
but this is the point
where you've got to let go of my sleeve.

(chorus)

Maybe halfway through this ride,
still I'm circling outside,
though whenever I remember them,
the gates are open wide.
Wait, I've heard this song before,
over there's some kind of door
and all I have to be is still enough to use the key
but I can't find the way to me,
no, I can't find the way to me.

and they come in your dreams
and they come where there's space between the seams.
Give all your attention when random develops a theme.

and they're coming here still,
'till it's too late,
or 'till you show the way you will,
wading cross current
or floating your way down the stream?

(chorus)
