about

An ancient memory that exists somewhere just beyond our understanding.

lyrics

Dark Atlantis, under the sea
halls of ancient mystery
The people who made you live
have vanished for all time
still, you never ceased to be.....

When will you ever rise again
to make things real, that might have been
You're only a dream, they say,
set forth in an ancient rhyme
but I know you're lost in time
lost in time....

In mighty cathedrals black magic was wrought
and seeking the power, great battles were fought
to combat an evil that could never be
the fate of the city was thrown to the sea

And for ages thereafter the secret was kept
beyond the time barrier, Atlantis still slept
The words of redemption were intrusted to man
but man was unworthy, the words turned to sand...

Now when children build castles of sand by the sea
their eager minds seeking some lost memory
I turn away sadly, I could never stay
to watch the waves rise up, and wash them all away...
wash them all away......

I've always loved the late 60s through early 80s classic rock stuff. UFO, Thin Lizzy, Kansas,Blue Oyster Cult, Wishbone Ash. These are among my favorites and influence my song writing. If you like the music of that era, you might like my stuff. If so, let me know, my email is listed below, I love to talk about music. It's been my passion for over 50 years. Rock On.... Mike ... more
