Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Is it a kind of dream
Floatin' out on the tide
Followin' the river of death downstream?
Oh, is it a dream?
[Verse 2]
There's a fog along the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
And nobody seems to know where you go
And what does it mean?
Oh, is it a dream?
[Verse 3]
Bright eyes
Burnin' like fire
Bright eyes
How can you close and fail?
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes
[Verse 4]
Is it a kind of shadow
Reachin' into the night
Wanderin' over the hills unseen?
Or is it a dream?
[Verse 5]
There's a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
And nobody ever knows when you go
And where do you start
Oh, into the dark
[Verse 6]
Bright eyes
Burnin' like fire
Bright eyes
How can you close and fail?
How can the light the burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes
[Verse 7]
Bright eyes
Burnin' like fire
Bright eyes
How can you close and fail?
How can the light the burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale?
Bright eyes
