The Departure Lyrics


I came back to life
Naked, tied to the floor
In the corner of my eyes
I saw them coming through the doorAll is black, all is white
Gotta open my eyes
And faced the airport lightsI stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever beenI cannot move, behind myself is a spark
I pray on myself of who I left behindAnd as I look around
Then I realize I'm all alone
The dark so wide so wasted
Chills me to the boneOh, suddenly arising up in the air
My mind was burning
The [Incomprehensible] spare
I said farewell to the bodies, they're stealingAll is black, all is white
I open my eyes
And face the airport lightsI stared into the eyes of eternity

I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever beenAlways setting us free
I'll fit right back into the dream
But something here just keeps me awakeAnd I'm cut wide open
Maybe they search for my soul
This is more than a human can takeAnd don't tell me I'm dreaming
I know what I saw
I'll feel alive like never beforeI stared into the eyes of eternity
And I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever beenI stared into the eyes of eternity
I've seen what no man's ever seen
I stared into the eyes of eternity
I've been where no man's ever been

Michael Nyman (born March 23, 1944) is a British minimalist composer, pianist, librettist and musicologist, perhaps best known for the many scores he wrote during his lengthy collaboration with the British filmmaker Peter Greenaway. Nyman, who had studied with the noted baroque music scholar Thurston Dart at King's College London, drew frequently on early music sources in his scores for Greenaway's films: Henry Purcell in The Draughtsman's Contract and The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover, Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber in A Zed and Two Noughts...
