In between awake and sleep 
He closed his eyes and took the leap 
The afternoons where mothers weep 
For frozen lakes and fallen leaves 
Safe inside his treehouse dreams 
Forsakes his plans 
Forgets his schemes 
The wicked whisper from the sea 
This is the night you come with me 

Time is passing by 
A ship comes in 
It sails tonight 

When all the lights parade the air 
Like carousels at summer fairs 
Beware the stare of ghosthouse eyes 
The wicked whispers in the night 
Still it's ringing in his mind 
So hard to touch, so hard to find 
In treehouse dreams, he still go waits 
And seven seas to seal his fate 

Time is passing by 
A ship comes in 
It sails tonight 

Time is passing by 
A ship comes in 
It sails tonight 

Yes time has passed him by 
His ship came in 
It sailed last night
