Waking Dream
Come, sit by my side a minute
We've been walking in a waking dream, forever, it seems
Everything known as living and dying in equal parts
Everything that's light and dark is the heart of it together
Even the saddest of endings has in it seeds of another start
Another chance to make another mark in it
To begin in now and shoot upright, finding always in the stars
Stand your ground with me
Hold on for what wants to be
You're empty now, right down to your favourite memory
Of long ago and far away
Lost and faded day
Sing your secrets out
The laughing, crying and lonely shout
I'll still hear your song, long after the crowds have come and gone
Why can't we just break free?
Free to be a wild new gravity
Time can bend, just you wait and see
Hope depends, hope depends on suffering fools like you and me
This longest night can never stay days just a dawn away
And what is light, but the love we make?
What is light, but the love we make?
We've been walking in a waking dream, forever, it seems
Everything known as living and dying in equal parts
Everything that's light and dark is the heart of it together
Even the saddest of endings has in it seeds of another start
Another chance to make another mark in it
To begin in now and shoot upright, finding always in the stars
Stand your ground with me
Hold on for what wants to be
You're empty now, right down to your favourite memory
Of long ago and far away
Lost and faded day
Sing your secrets out
The laughing, crying and lonely shout
I'll still hear your song, long after the crowds have come and gone
Why can't we just break free?
Free to be a wild new gravity
Time can bend, just you wait and see
Hope depends, hope depends on suffering fools like you and me
This longest night can never stay days just a dawn away
And what is light, but the love we make?
What is light, but the love we make?
