Secret Passageways – Lyrics

Lyrics

by Cheryl

One day, by chance I saw the world within

Beyond a closing door
In that moment, though brief as it was
I saw something more
Somehow missed, unseen before

I saw a shadow cross an old garden bench

As the gates drew closed
Stole a peek of flowers russet and gold
Violet and rose
Brilliant, intensely white they glowed
Though always there, I was unaware
Of that secret, veiled passageway
Today, fate revealed the passageway

Then suddenly I saw the world within

Never seen before
Since that moment of stealing a glance
I want even more than glimpses
Through a slightly open door
So much to see beyond those walls
Through gates of a secret veiled passageway
