I've been looking for the master line
Long day looking for a holy sign
And I thought nothing of the ghost of time
She hides behind the sun

So suddenly it's gone and I'm too late, too late
God knows I've been searching long

Following the ebb and flow
Torn asunder
So patiently I wait
But I'm too late

Face pressed up against the window pane
Thin hand ticking like a rattled chain
This race is never won

So many stones unturned
Below all of their concern 
Following the ebb and flow
Torn asunder
So patiently I wait
But I'm too late

Gotta run or else i'll lose my soul
