You turn out the light And the dark sucks on the embers of the fire That smolders in the night And these tumbling boulders of desire Come a-rolling off
Tears falling slow, from the bridge Into the river below, in your eyes, I start to see A starry veil, the ocean of infinity Moon and stars above me,
All of my senses overthrown By the might of your skin And the lamplight on your cheek bone Drawing me further in No sentence I can speak for the wonder
It's like this, it's all in here Just one kiss will make that clear So let the flower open let the ship sail Don't need no meaningless token to hear the
As the bell must strike the hour As the west must stab the sun So our hearts must heed the flow Of deeper tides that run Far beyond this bare indifference
The city gates at twilight And a red ship sinking Behind winters gray wall Ice in the wind But a fire in the embers of my heart as darkness falls In
What are you becoming? What have you become? Once you sang your own song Now you're dancing to the same drum What have you become? And what is that you
Weight on my shoulders But I?m walking so tall Out into the new horizon Wonder in everything No matter how great or small Howlin? like the midnight Howlin
Lightening strikes, silver motorbikes Roaring down the open road Wind on my skin, I'm hungry to begin And my cup has overflown So let fall the rain down
It's a sad old world that's turning tonight As I slide through the streets Moonlight and memory burning And in my hand your broken dream My watery eyes
As the bell must strike the hour As the west must stab the sun So our hearts Must heed the flow Of deeper tides that run Far beyond this bare indifference

Tears falling slow From the bridge Into the river below In your eyes, I start to see A starry veil, The ocean of infinity Moon and stars above
