Lyrics

Picture a doorway, picture a wall, picture a window
See through it all
Picture a mountain towering tall -- picture the climb, yes, picture the fall
So close to paradise, hearing the call
Picture the gambler -- it's winner take all
Choose your own vision, make your own call
Picture a doorway, see through it all

I'm crying on somebody's shoulder, I'm laughing in somebody's dream
The wind blows harder and colder, and nothing is quite what it seems
A shadow so clear on the cave wall -- the light comes from way deep inside
Try to see through me, we're all in this movie
And everything's made out of light
Not all you see can be trusted, for not all that's real can be seen
We're standing on somebody's shoulders
And dancing in somebody's dream

Picture the sky making love to the sea
Picture all that can possibly be
Look in yourself, tell me what do you see
Infinity . . .
Picture your heaven, picture your hell
Picture the difference -- picture it well
Choose your own vision, make your own call
Picture a doorway, see through it all

I'm tempted by dangerous women who are drawn to dangerous men
Illusion is all we are given -- confusion again and again
You can dance with your angels on pinheads
Dance with the devil you know
Dance with a nun, dance with a skinhead
The beat is way deep in your soul
And nothing is quite what it seems -- the dance is all anything means
We're standing on somebody's shoulders
And dancing in somebody's dream
