I’ll Spin you a Story

I could spin for you
Threads of silver and gold
I could weave you a yarn
A tale not yet told
I could stitch up a story
Magic, you’ll feel
When I spin you some wonders
On my spinning wheel

I’ll let you see
Into the future
I’ll make you forget
All the pain from the past
I’ll tell you a story
One of the greatest
To kindle, a fire
So that a flame always lasts

You could be a monster
You could be a saint
you could be a villain
As a hero, you ain’t
You’re more like a trickster
They say, hardly wise
Be careful with those tricks
Don’t go tellin’ lies

I’ll let you see
Into the future
I’ll make you forget
All the pain from the past
I’ll tell you a story
One of the greatest
To kindle, a fire
So that a flame always lasts

They say that time heals
Yet, time is runnin’ out
They say ‘hold your temper’
When you just wanna’ shout
They say, don’t look back
Or glance, but don’t stare
As the arrow of time
Seems to be going nowhere

Yet, the arrow of time
Always moves forwards
But one has to wonder
What do we go towards
Is life always progressing
Phase after phase
Whilst we always seem lost
In a labyrinthine haze

I’ll let you see
Into the future
I’ll make you forget
All the pain from the past
I’ll tell you a story
One of the greatest
To kindle, a fire
So that a flame always lasts
