Al Stewart – Time Passages Lyrics 10 years ago
The singer/author dreams about the past--and retreats into memory--fantasizing about what was left behind; what was not entirely realized. It's not an unpleasant fantasy. He's enjoying his recollections.

And the way the saxophone suddenly blares out: he's RECOVERED with new energy. He revisited the past--and returned, empowered with his recollections.

He remembers the girl he "once used to know." But he can't grasp her. She's out of sight. Still, he wants to go home: can't let go so easily.

He lives within the dream for quite a while (the song keeps on keepin' on): But then the TRIUMPHANT RETURN TO THE PRESENT. I love this song.

@[Richie45069:7318] Yes, one of the best songs ever made. "Year of the Cat" isn't in the same league.
