A thousand years of sleep

I've missed the rising sun

Wish I could change this

Always the same

With each one, every night

I'd watch as the light

Slowly fades from their eyes



Ohh so long

Long ago

What he took

Then gave to me

There is no end

It's not what I thought it'd be



Left drained felt impaired

The eyes drew me inside

Hypnotic waltz from his stare

Letting go



Ohh I still love

With the night will arrive

The cobblestones

Light misty air

The brief carress

Our sweet affair



Ohh so long

Long ago

I was just like any of you

A Simple Man

There was nothing I could do



But I've grown so tired

There's no need to hold on

If you hear me

Just wanna be

Be the man I was



Please believe

If I could

I would change

One thousand years

And still I am

Looking like the day

This all began



Ohh so long

Long ago

What he took

Then gave to me

Take it back

And give back the man in me



I'm going on my way

I'm going where there's no desire

Goin on where I'll stay higher than now



I want what you have taken

My life has been forsaken

Many nights I lay torn I'm breaking down

Why all this began

What's there to care for

Fade away
