[A sudden rush of emotions iterrupts Simon's thoughts. Images parade at a frantic pace as he feels the floor glide away. Dizzy by vertigo he floats weightless through an everchanging tapestry of events. Then everything stops and he finds himself on a sandy beach, dark cliffs looming above. As the moon appears, he realizes he has been here before. This is where the music begins.] [Simon, laying down on the white sand:] And by the water Stillness comes at last and so I sleep Whispering the wind of secret dreams And promises to keep There she comes to me and says she'll set me free She takes my hand and leads me to the lake The moon shines in her hair Like faeries dancing there Bewildered by her beauty I awake [The Siren's Song] And by the water I tried my best to never let it show For years just a memory A dream that I once lived so long ago Then she comes to me, she smiles and sets me free The living lie dies through my tearstained eyes Waves roll in so I can shed my skin Breathe in some air, then smell the scent and open Eyes shine in the dark, showing me the way Eyes follow the spark, that will lead the day To guide my way The way to truth and hope and love
