When the world was woken. Save all unknowing eyes. And thoughts that once were spoken. Left only to despise. And when the dawn is breaking. Look upward to the sky.
I once loved a lady who did change into a child. I saw the light of day shine in her eyes. I loved her like a baby and I raised her to the sky. It seems the light of day did pass me by.
In corridors of air the clouds were waiting there. They knew that never again the skies would be so blue. They took away the sun and with it took the fun.
Here I sit watching the day out. No one beside me who may doubt. All of the words that I could choose to say. So listen, believe or be gone from this day.
She walks on through the night. Her circumstances slight. Are only helping her to fail. And though she feels she's right. She tries with all her might.
Let's come on and get together. Like the sky gets to the sea. Just taking some time on. Let's come on and make it better. Let's make everybody see. Just taking some time on.
I've been looking for a place that I know well. It's a long, long way from here and when I get there. I will tell, I will tell. . I've been looking for a time that I once knew.
And with the dawn she changes. Her voice in different ranges. The torn and tattered pages. For all I've done, poor wages. Satisfied, I never lied. Say goodbye, I couldn't try.
And with the rain. Soft pools of blue. White mist like love. When you glow so new. Must warm to you. . Just like the snow. Falling anew. When it's soaked through.
Oh Mother dear. What a night this has been. I awoke in the light of a vision in white. The prettiest girl that I have ever seen. Lately my love, said the lady in white.
The lady loves, while she may. The lady loves, while she may. In the pale moonlight, or a sunny day. The lady loves, mmm she loves. The lady dreams, while she may.
Get up, get up, get up, child. Get off your knees. Take it, take it, take it, I'm easy. We're here to please. . Put your hands in the air. Put your feet on the ground.
Don't ask me how I know. But this dark sky will soon be blue. Don't ask, no don't ask. Just watch as the gray mists of winter. Fall like so many drops of dew.
If I had my way. I would not be here. Not for one day. My leaving is clear. . I've had my share. Of heartache and pain. For happiness. I'm searching in vain.
