Well, i stayed awake 'til the sun came up 

like some distant memory. 

and i watched as the night and it's wisdom

disappeared right before me. 



I was picturing you in that dublin blue 

and i reached out in vain once again, 

knowing that you're there and i'm here 

and there's so much out there in between.



Like a post card i could try hard 

somehow describing just what i feel... 

..but its far too real. 



Staring out at the ocean 

listening to the traffic below. 

everybody's fueled by frustration, 

still its only love making everyone go. 



The waves crash down i hear the sound 

of the time-keeping tide, once again 

reminding me its only life 

and i should feel free just to be. 



Like a stonewall i could stand tall 

waving my flag claiming how i feel...

...but its far too real. 



As seagulls soar through the sunset they 

leave their silhouettes of wind driven wings. 

i quietly watch what remains of the day 

and i listen as my soul sings. 



Shadows run long like a sad song 

and the night claims my tears once again. 

as i return to all i've learned 

somehow i finally see the light. 



Like an old jar i could try hard 

somehow containing just what i feel...

...but its far too real. 



I stayed awake 'til the sun came up 

like some distant memory. 

and i watched as the night and her wisdom 

disappeared right before me.
