[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Memory extends its empire
Holds the frame but blurs the line
Some other time invades the sense
A moment caught and lost, second sight
[Verse 2]
Suddenly I feel you near me
Worlds away and close as this
One stolen kiss upon my lips
And the moment slips away in mid-flight
[Verse 3]
So many years ago, and now it's hard
To recall just what you meant to me
So I wait, I'm patient
For the memory comes to me eventually
Here you are, and though you may soon be gone
Somehow the song still burns as bright
[Refrain]
I felt it happen here tonight –
Here, in the Empire of Delight
[Verse 1]
Memory extends its empire
Holds the frame but blurs the line
Some other time invades the sense
A moment caught and lost, second sight
[Verse 2]
Suddenly I feel you near me
Worlds away and close as this
One stolen kiss upon my lips
And the moment slips away in mid-flight
[Verse 3]
So many years ago, and now it's hard
To recall just what you meant to me
So I wait, I'm patient
For the memory comes to me eventually
Here you are, and though you may soon be gone
Somehow the song still burns as bright
[Refrain]
I felt it happen here tonight –
Here, in the Empire of Delight
