Sarah Brightman - Away From You lyrics

Your rating:

Away from you
There is no music,
There is no sunlight,
The world is gray.
Away from you
The clocks are frozen,
And time`s a traveller
Who`s lost his way.

The people I meet
Might as well be statues,
The words we exchange
Might as well be Greek.
The room that I`m in
May be bright and cheerful
But to me
It`s dim and bleak.


I`m half alive
Until the moment
The door swings open
And you walk through.
      Now my world starts to glow
      Like a stained-glass window
      And what was old and cold
      Is warm and new.
And so you see
Why I can never be
Away from you.


      Away from you
      The world is lifeless
      As though creation
      Has gone awry.
      The trees are bare,
      There are no flowers,
      The fields are thirsty,
      The streams are dry.


      We live, you and I,
      For a breath of sunlight,
      So brief an escape
      From a world of gray.
      Our moments of warmth
      Have been touch and go, love,
      But tonight, we`ll touch
      And stay.


The people I meet
Might as well be statues,
The words we exchange
Might as well be Greek.
The room that I`m in
May be bright and cheerful
But to me
It`s dim and bleak.


I`m half alive
Until the moment
The door swings open
And you walk through.
Now my soul is afloat
On a wave of music
That I could feel such joy
I never knew.
And so you see
Why I can never be
Away from you.
