|
You awoke in a burning paperhouse |
|
From the infinite fields |
|
Of dreamless sleep |
|
You return to tiannammen |
|
An eyewitness in a shroud |
|
To see them fall, feel them yield |
|
Reliving the terror of the crowd |
|
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow |
|
Just for a moment i seemed to know |
|
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow |
|
I seemed to know the ghost in you |
|
The whisper of your scream |
|
Sighed through the air |
|
And faith-the flag is torn and frayed |
|
Inferno heat, glory in flame |
|
Love was beaten and betrayed |
|
In every step i hear your sobbing |
|
Dare i break the shade with one caress? |
|
Dare i trespass to lift the veil |
|
To touch the lips so soft and frail? |
|
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow |
|
I seemed to know the ghost in you |
|
Your captive heart, the belief you share |
|
With a kiss eternal, the spirits of the square |
|
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow |
|
Hope remains with the ghost in you |
|
Hold the whirlwind, don't let it blow |
|
I seemed to know the ghost in you |
|
Don't let it blow |
|
The ghost in you |
|
The ghost in you |
