Alan Parsons Project, The - Ignorance Is Bliss Lyrics






I find this Paradise and rest beside a river
No need to walk another mile
It seems like everyone has everything that wishes could provide
But no one seems to smile

You won't believe me when I tell you this is fantasy
Don't ask how long all this can last
The same old sun will rise and make tomorrow just like yesterday
And so your time will pass

A shelter from the storm
A room without a view
A place where you belong
And like a mother's kiss
That carries you to sleep
The ignorance is bliss

One day the wind may change and blow at your defences
And shake the ground on which you stand
One day the tide may turn and wash away your castles in the sand
And silence rule the land

A shelter from the storm
A room without a view
A place where you belong
And like a mother's kiss
That carries you to sleep
The ignorance is bliss

One day the wind will change and blow away your wonderland
Blue skies will soon be overcast
One day the tide will turn and wash away your castles in the sand
And you'll find peace... at last

Alan Parsons Project, The Ignorance Is Bliss Comments
  1. J.... A....

    A time of the innocence of not knowing, it is the bliss! And not the ignorance.
    A beautiful song/verses, a shelter from the storms of experience, a room without
    the terrible view of how it all really is... Just like a dear mother's
    kiss before the time to enter the fields of evolution.
    Yes, it hurts horribly, it is so painful to grow, to evolve, to leave it all behind, to lose all of our security blankets, to let go of all the dear apron strings of past accommodations.
    To forget all and then to come back to start it all back again until we do learn & evolve.
    Peace at last, yes, but only after we lose the fear and we surrender to that what we are made of, to Changes!
    Evolution does come to All. - Sky a.k.a. JD Aeon
