Lyrics

[00:20.25] Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late
[00:32.58] And sometimes all I want to do is wait
[00:39.97] The shadow I’ve been hiding in has fled from me today
[00:50.74] I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye
[01:03.41] But I will raise a shelter to the sky
[01:10.58] And beneath this
[01:12.29] Star tonight I’ll lie
[01:17.65] She will slowly yield the light
[01:20.36] As I awaken from the longest night
[02:02.95] Dreams are shaking
[02:04.23] Set sirens waking up tired eyes
[02:08.49] With the light memories all rush into his head
[02:15.10] By a candle stands a mirror
[02:17.94] Of his heart and soul she dances
[02:21.00] She was dancing through the night above his bed
[02:26.89] And walking to the window
[02:29.86] He throws the shutters out
[02:32.15] Against the wall
[02:38.73] And from an ivory tower hears her call
[02:43.45] ’let the light surround you’
[02:58.63] It’s been a long, long time
[03:00.34] He’s had awhile to hink it over
[03:03.43] In the end he only sees the change
[03:06.67] Light to dark
[03:07.33] Dark to light
[03:08.22] Light to dark
[03:09.14] Dark to light
[03:10.93] Heaven must be more than this
[03:13.53] When angels waken with a kiss
[03:16.44] Sacred hearts won’t take the pain
[03:19.10] But mine will never be the same
[03:22.45] He stands before the window
[03:24.97] His shadow slowly fading from the wall
[03:33.75] And from an ivory tower he hears her call
[03:38.18] ’let the light surround you’
[04:03.92] Once lost but I was found
[04:07.86] When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me
[04:14.19] I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill
[04:18.95] But I will hold this one on high above me still
[04:25.91] I once could see but now at last I’m blind
[04:44.78] I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye
[04:57.41] But I had given all than I could take
[05:04.38] And now I’ve only habits left to break
[05:11.56] Tonight I’ll still be lying here
[05:15.14] Surrounded in all the light
