Testo Recollection - Rick Wakeman
Testo della canzone Recollection (Rick Wakeman), tratta dall'album Journey to the Centre of the Earth
Replenished with the water, the journey continued with haste, but
Somehow they find themselves separated. Professor Lidenbrock's nephew
Axel found himself alone. His mind was seized with unparalleled fear
And he saw memories of home flashing before him. His fiancée Grauben
His house and friends in Hamburg. He saw hallucinations of all the
Incidents of the journey. And unworthy as he felt, he knelt in
Fervent prayer and then in panic he ran blindly through a tunnel
Only to reach a dead end where he fell panting for breath. In
The darkness he cried. Voices, voices, voices, he heard voices
He heard his uncle's voice. Due to the shape of the gallery
And the conducting power of the rocks, his uncle's voice was
Uncannily traveling around the walls. And by means of their
Chronometers they discovered they were four miles apart. So Axel
Set about the task of rejoining the professor and their guide
Memories of a life on Earth go flashing past
Of home, of Grobin, friends of whom he's seen his last
Contemplating what his life's been worth
While trapped beneath the earth
An embryo at birth
Pain and fear destroy the beauty I have seen
Of caverns where no other man has ever been
Solerian epoch holds me as my grave
My final bow I wave
A life too late to save
Crystals of a pink quartz studded limpeters
Forming magic chandeliers
Lighting blistered galleries
Suddenly the ground disappeared from beneath his feet. He fell
Down a vertical shaft, his head hitting a sharp rock. He lost
Consciousness. On opening his eyes he found himself with the
Professor and the Guide. And looking around him he saw an ocean
Stretching as far as the eye could see, a giant forest of mushrooms
A line of huge cliffs, and strange clouds hung overhead as he
Lay on a deeply indented shore of golden sand strewn with shells
For a moment he thought he was back on the surface of the Earth
But he soon realized that they had reached a world within a world
