The Band - Hold Back The Dawn lyrics

Your rating:

                     

 The sun was going down

Over echo park

Wet raven hair

Glowing in the dark

And that's when the fever would rise

And lord what a look in her eyes

From the moment that she blows out the light

We'd be lost in the forever night



Chorus:

Hold back the dawn

Hold back the dawn

Won't you raise up your hand

And hold back the dawn



I dreamt if I could lay you upon this

Bed of straw

We may break the rules but we don't

Break the law

Come across but the river's too wide

Come across but the river's too high

Over by the fountain where we meet

I will lay silver roses at your feet



Chorus



Now I have seen a painting

Old and hanging in a frame

And that painting was of you

Now how can you explain

From another place in time

Done many years ago

Why I'm haunted by this vision

Guess we'll never know

Then she turned and whispered in my ear

Can you feel my heart beat



Chorus



Won't you raise

Won't you raise up

Won't you raise up your hand

And hold back the dawn



Chorus
