Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Out of the land of shadows and darkness

We were returning towards the morning light

Almost in reach of places I knew

Escaping the ghosts of yesterday

You were behind me following closely

"Don't turn around" I heard you whisper in my ear

"If you should turn now, all that you won

Will vanish just like a passing dream"

[Verse 2]

Just on the very verge of the morning

Daylight was dawning, freedom was but a step away

Now with the deep dark river behind us

What could go wrong if I stayed strong in mind?

What was the sudden lapse into madness?

What was the urge that turned my head 'round to look at you?

What was the stubborn will to destroy

The love and the joy I nearly held?

[Verse 3]

Three times a thunder roared in my ears

In all of my years I'll see that lost look in your eyes

As with a sigh like smoke in the wind

You slipped from my grasp into the waiting shadows

So much I longed to say, but my touch found

Only the empty air and a black night's coldness

Ah, oh, into another world you have passed

And never again can I reclaim you
