Lyrics: The Captive Heart
Album: Novella
Artist: Renaissance, The
 

I made my dreams then lost them
They left and i went away
There’s no romance in the memory
That’s part of yesterday
But feelings linger stronger sometimes
So hard to disappear
When what holds you is a treasure
You’ve stored throughout the years
Finding out the hard way

The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers
That place each moment close to living in each other
Reaching out for treasures
Scattered in their dreams
Trying takes a life of loving so it seems

So carry on don’t stop your feelings
Try and make them flow
Somewhere there’s a vision waiting
You’ll find it when you know
Taking the final curtain
That’s coming down on you
Leaving the play of fools
Move onto life you knew
Fiding out the hard way

No easy path to conquer
Trying to compromise
Climbing through my anguish
I see your fading eyes

The captive heart has lost and won a thousand lovers
That place each moment close to living in each other
Reaching out for treasures
Scattered in their dreams
Loving takes a life of trying so it seems
