Lyrics:

AYREON (ARJEN LUCASSEN): I can smell the grass, and touch the flowers. Among the trees, I pass the hours and fantasize. I let the dance of nature inspire me. Now my mind is free from apparitions. I switch off like a 'television', and close my eyes. And I wish that I could see like everybody can... How I wish that I could be like any other man... I can't see the sun, but I sense its glow. I hear the sound of water flowing down the stream. And my heart cries out for a little bit o' love. But I know that it was not meant to be. So I fulfill my destiny and accept my fate. Still I wish that I could see like everybody can... (Like everybody can...) How I wish that I could be like any other man...
