Morning comes too early
and nightime falls too late.
And sometimes all I want to do
is wait
The shadow I've been hiding in
has fled from me today.

I know it's easier to walk away
than look it in the eye.
But I will raise a shelter to the sky
and here beneath this
star tonight I'll lie.
She will slowly yield the light.
As I awaken from the longest night.

Dreams are shaking
Set sirens waking up tired eyes
With the light the memories
all rush into his head.

By a candle stands a mirror
Of his heart and soul she dances
She was dancing through the night above his bed

And walking to the window
he throws the shutters out
against the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let the light surround you"

It's been a long, long tíme
He's had a while to think it over
In the end he only sees the change
Light to dark
Dark to light
Light to Dark
Dark to light

Heaven must be more then this
When angels waken with a kiss
Sacred hearts won't take the pain
But mine will never be the same

He stands bevore the window
His shadow slowly fading from the wall
And from ivory tower hears her call
"Let the light surround you"

Once lost but I was found
When I heard the stained glass
shatter all around me
I sent the spirits tumbling
down the hill
But I will hold this one on high above me still
She whispers words to clear my mind
I once could see but now at last I'm blind

I know it's easier to walk away
than look it in the eye
But I had give all that I could take
And now I've only habits left to break
Tonight I'll still be lying here
Surrounded in all the light
