about

Spartacus eh ? Not Kirk's greatest movie - The Thinman always liked Lonely Are The Brave - never pick a fight with a one armed man !!! Anyway, this song might be about loneliness but not necessarily brave..................but, beware, The Thinman is a dream invader........................

lyrics

The night breeze is a welcome guest - it carries the scent of your breath
The only freedom for a slave tonight is death
And I am Spartacus – nailed to a cross
All that’s left of us – is the time that we lost

Do you believe in ghosts like you are never alone ?
Do you hear footsteps following you ? – on your way home ?
And do moments like these - always end too soon ?
And life turns lonely and you’re howling at the moon

I been in your mind and I know what you been dreaming of
Take whatever I can find - I don’t need to be in love
I got stolen stars I left behind – that was my only crime
Memories that I rewind – now I gotta do the time
I see clouds floating by - and rain from the fallen sky
I’m so glad I learned to fly but I never meant to get this high

Years disappear into memories
Stuck in my mind for centuries
Comets return after hundreds of years - planets spin around like lost and lonely spheres
We’re all just a prisoners of gravity

And I stare into the vacuum of my eyes
And I see the vacuum of my mind

But memories like these can keep you in orbit for a lifetime
Like a sad country ghost over a Nashville Skyline
And those old records spin around inside my mind
Music is the key to travelling in time
