Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From the red sky of the east to the sunset in the west
We have cheated death and he has cheated us
[Verse 2]
But that was just a dream and this is what it means
We are sleeping and we'll dream forevermore
[Verse 3]
And the fragment remains of our memories
And the shadows we made with our hands
Deeper grey, come to mourn all the colours of the dawn
Will this journeyman's day be his last?
[Verse 4]
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
[Verse 5]
But the memory still remains, all the past years not so strange
Our winter times are like a silent shroud
[Verse 6]
And the heartbeat of the day drives the mist away
And winter's not the only dream around
[Verse 7]
In your life, you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light that is burning in the night
Then your journeyman's day has begun
[Verse 8]
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
[Verse 9]
In your life, you may choose desolation
And the shadows you build with your hands
If you turn to the light that is burning in the night
Then your journeyman's day has begun
[Verse 10]
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
I know what I want and I'll say what I want
And no one can take it away
