There's a voyage I am yearning to traverse
Melodiously adorned with rhyme and verse
As the sounds drift in, my mind seeks escape
Though murky at first, an image takes shape

My breathing is paused as the mist slowly clears
Who are these souls that stand before me here?
Is this Paradise, or maybe just a dream?
Could this fantasy be what it seems?

Magical, mythical, a ship on the seas
Musical, lyrical, a song in the breeze
A dream I have carried so long in my heart
The vision I glimpse is God's work of art
A foggy illusion, a gothic tale
A story that unfolds on a river I will sail
Can they be Lords or are they just men?
The answer lies in the message they send...

Voices of wisdom that speak to my ears
Five minstrels that sing hope to my fears
The tales that they tell are of faith and truth
They were the bedtime stories of my youth

Soothing to my spirit like a child's lullaby
Messages they bring gently envelop my life
With every rise of a note, every drop of a key
My soul finds repose, my mind is set free

The dream lingers on until I've found peace
When my body's relaxed and my fears are released
Questions are answered and truths are obtained
Now the path that I walk is eternally changed

And as the fog lifts and my sight is clear
I see there are millions that have joined me here
We are all united in this peaceful dream
And indeed the fantasy was just as it seemed
