Song | Surrounded |
Artist | Dream Theater |
Album | New York City 3/4/93 |
[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 |
[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 |
