THE NIGHT MOVES ACROSS MY SKIN

A SUDDEN CHILL, A COOL WIND

I WATCH THE FOG ROLL IN

EVERYTHING FADES AWAY

IN A CHORUS OF SWIRLING MIST

NOW I'M STANDING HERE

IN THE MIDDLE OF SOME OTHERWORLDLY VOID

SILENT AND BLIND

AND I FIND I'M TURNED AROUND

SWALLOWED BY THE FOG

I DON'T KNOW WHICH WAY TO GO

IT'S GOT ME CORNERED

STOPPED ME DEAD IN MY TRACKS

I CAN'T GO FORWARD

AND I CAN'T GO BACK

THEN SUDDENLY

THE SILENCE IS BROKEN

BY A SHIP OUT AT SEA

BLOWING HIS FOGHORN

AND IT LESSENS THE MYSTERY

SLOWLY GOING FORWARD

HEADED FOR THE SEA

IT'S IN THE AIR TO GREET ME

I SMELL IT ON THE BREEZE

SEE THE SUNRISE, BURNING THROUGH THE FOG

HERE MY MIND BEGINS TO CLEAR

WITH EVERY NEW WAVE THAT SWEEPS ALONG THE SHORE 

SOME ROMANTIC NOTION THAT I GOT

SOMEWHERE BEFORE

NOW THE SUN BREAKS THROUGH

MORNING LIGHT TURNING GOLD

SKIES OF BLUE UNFOLD

THE CURE IS SLOWLY TAKING HOLD

BUT IS IT TOO EARLY TO SIGH

LAY MY WEARY HEAD DOWN

DREAM RIGHT HERE IN THE SAND

DOES ANYONE ELSE FEEL LIKE THIS

SEPARATED AND LONELY

LOOKING FOR THE WAY OUT THAT I CAME IN

SAND SEA AND SUN

FILL MY SOUL

TASTE THE SALT FELL THE WIND IN MY HAIR

IT'S JUST TOO HARD

TO LOOK AWAY FROM THIS

EVERYDAY I ALREADY MISSED

THE ONES THAT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE

BUT I WAS NOWHERE NEAR

LEFT ME HANGING FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE

ONE MORE WALL TO BREAK THROUGH

JUST TO SEE THE SUN AGAIN

JUST ANOTHER BAD DREAM TO LEAVE BEHIND

PUT ME IN A STATE OF MIND

AND LEAVE ME TO DREAM
