I heard that the first couple of stanzas from the song "Bent Cold Sidewalk" off Tangerine Dreams album "Cyclone" had some allusions to some lines of Shakespeare, can anyone confirm this

Here they are...

"When I talk to the trees O'great trees who have learned to speak slowly I know that they believe that they have an answer Then I walk in the city where I cannot hear it

When I talk to the city I have already learned three answers before I call the question And slowly, I wish myself among trees but can not hear myself wishing

When I talk to the people who are the trees that grow in the city they reply with a fond kindness, slowly but there is no answer for experience to be made by mistake

Upon this key, time will slide, Beyond this lock, you lose your mind. And as our door becomes open, A rush of sound is found inside Creating Dreams that pass you by."

Thanks, -Scott
