Morning comes too early

and nighttime falls too late

And sometimes all I want to do

is wait

The shadow I`ve been hiding in

has fled from me today



I know it`s easier to walk away

than look it in the eye

But I will raise a shelter to the sky

and here beneath this

star tonight I`ll lie

She will slowly yield the light

As I awaken from the longest

night



Dreams are shaking

Set sirens waking up tired eyes

With the light the memories

all rush into his head



By a candle stands a mirrow

Of his heart and soul she

dances

She was dancing thru the night

above his bed

And walking to the window

he throws the shutters out

against the wall

And from an ivory tower hears

her call

"Let light surround you"



It`s been a long,long time

He`s had a while to think it over

In the end he only sees the

change

Light to dark

Dark to light

Light to dark

Dark to light



Heaven must be more than this

When angels waken with a kiss

Sacred hearts won`t take the

pain

But mine will never be the same



He stands before the window

His shadow slowly fading from

the wall

And from an ivory tower hears

her call

"Let the light surround you"



Once lost but I was found

When I heard the stained glass

shatter all arround me

I send the spirits tumbling

down the hill

But I will hold this one on high

above me still

She whispers words to clear my

mind

I once could see but now at last

I`m blind



I know it`s easier to walk away

than look it in the eye

But I had given all that

I could take
