["the loss of a day, through the length of a night"]
come child join me, now thatthe whiskey
has turned me into another man
we'll talk and we'll laugh like old times
and we'll try to understand
as i see your face, pale and terrified
it's a nightmare coming true
and believe me daughter , everyday
it's a new you i'm talking to
old scholar - man of wisdom
take your daughter to hyperion
now, don't hesitate to come
put a dagger into her heart
- let her spirit fly to the sun
let her spirit fly to the sun
how my god can this be true
and why, did it happen to you
why do i have to stand helpless by
to relive your life too
i come to find upright in bed
to remenber all the tears we have shed
don't tell me, coz' i already know
i'll let you cry for the twentieth night in a row
i remember you smilling in the sun
i recall everything you and i have done
to relive it everyday is too hard for me
welcome back little one
i won't hold you back
i won't stand between you and destiny
there were times when i ignored all the signs i was given
but now i have to let go and set you free |
