She woke me up to say,
"Darling you were calling out my name,
A way you never had before."
As this dream passes swiftly by
Lying here with seconds left of life
Wishing I had lived at all...
And now it's starting again...
Just one strand of time
Reaching out is why we are alive.
And the silent die alone.
Tell me though...
Will we sing when the music fades?
I can feel the beat like the slowing of my heart.
Now it's too far gone...
Everybody dance to the rhythm of the sun.
As the music fades,
I can feel the beat like the slowing of my heart,
But now it's far too gone,
Everybody dance to the rhythm of the sun.
She left me flowers there;
One for every word I wish I'd said.
In this garden I'm alone...
But now I'm awake and you're gone and
I desperately want
To speak until I can't say anymore
Well, I'm crying out to an empty wall...
(Prechorus/Chorus)
We are too blind to see (the light)
With borrowed eyes,
If we stare into the sun...
