Vigeland’s Dream

[Verse 1]
I almost see my sister
In a face that's by my side
Although she has the eyes of someone else
Another face reminds me
Of a man I used to know
In one, to my surprise, I see myself

[Pre-Chorus]
Was this done for our sake?
Is it art for art's sake?
This is such a strange strange place
But it's beautiful
It's beautiful

[Chorus]
And anyone I've ever known
Is here with me now
Here in bronze and stone
Anyone I've ever seen
Stands before me now
A part of Vigeland's dream
A part of his dream
His vision for the world

[Verse 2]
I watch a father swing his child
Around him in the park
The laughing boy is happy as can be
And witnessing the scene
Brings out a funny mood in me
I pray they'll still be talking in his teens

[Pre-Chorus]
Was this done for our sake?
Is it art for art's sake?
This is such a strange strange place
But it's beautiful
It's beautiful

[Chorus]
And anyone I've ever known
Is here with me now
Here in bronze and stone
Anyone I've ever seen
Stands before me now
A part of Vigeland's dream
A part of his dream
His vision for the world
A part of his dream, his dream
Oh, his vision for the world

[Outro]
In one I see my future
In one I see my child
In one I see an angry little boy I recognise
In one I see my childhood
In one I see my own true
In one I see the wonder and the beauty of the world
Of the world
All the beauty of the world
