Tony Banks - An Island In The Darkness lyrics
Your rating:
Like a fuse to the end will burn Like a wave when the tide has turned You keep on coming regardless You won't accept defeat And in the light of a cold grey dawn When all seemed lost and you felt so forlorn You sensed a warmth surround you And now you find you're No longer on your own It's impossible unbelievable news It's impossible but it's true You never thought you would ever be here You never even dared to hope you would ever be here In a world you used to dream of And watch from afar After all of the time gone by Searching fruitlessly asking why It's hard to stop the trying To truly realize That all the pain all that's gone before Lies behind and you can close the door In the past forever No need to worry No need to fear at all It's impossible unbelievable news It's impossible but it's true You never thought you would ever be here You never even dared to hope you would ever be here In a world you used to dream of And watch from afar In every minute of every hour so many dreams die Do you believe it will be any different this time This dream will last forever This day will never end Now the fog surrounds you Swirling all around you Confusing all your senses All you see are phantoms Always just out of reach They tantalize and beckon Seduce but without promise You don't want to be here anymore You don't want to be here to take it anymore Now the water rises It takes you where it will You cannot choose direction Or control the motion And in the end you're thrown up On an island in the darkness Nothing is familiar Tell me are you frightened on your own Do you have the will to carry on?
