Nocturne Lyrics

Did I have a dream?
Or did the dream have me?
Did I have a dream?
Or did the dream have me?

Set off on a night-sea journey
Without memory or desire
Drifting through lost latitudes
With no compass and no chart

Flying through hallucination
Distant voices, signal fires
Lighting up my unconscious
And the secret places of the heart

Dream temporary madness
Dream a voice in the wilderness
Dream unconscious revelations
The morning says, the answer is yes

Did I have a dream?
Or did the dream have me?
Did I have a dream?
Or did the dream have me?

Floating through a darkened mirror
Deep reflections in disguise
Soaring through lost altitudes
Without wonder, without fear

Symbols on a field of visions
Behind the curtain of sleeping eyes
On the instant of waking
Another world of dreams appears

Dream temporary madness
Dream a walk in the wilderness
Dream unconscious recreation
The morning says the answer is yes

Dream temporary madness
Dream a voice in the wilderness
Dream unconscious revelations
The morning says, the answer is yes
The morning says, the answer is yes

Nocturne

Geddy Lee, Rockline, May 13, 2002: "Nocturne was one of the later songs that we wrote for the record after the break that we had. There was a group of about 5 or 6 songs that came from a two week period of just what I would consider the best jams Alex and I have ever had. I really love this song, I love the drum pattern, especially the way it starts. Its kind of about the questions you can subconsciously answer in your dreams without realizing it."
