A winter's dawn
in her snowy gray
and her misty gloom
Her sky is drawn
as she makes her way
for my heatless room
Dreams still cling
to my sleepy eyes
in a warm embrace
Senses bring
as they slowly rise
what I have to face
in this frozen place
for ever and a day
come what may
I linger and hope
forever
and I pray
there will come a day
fleet and strong
to take this boy along
Icy hill
catch a crowded bus
where you have to stand
Musing still
what is wrong with us
in this northern land
Days go by
in a whirl of sleep
at a mortal cost
Seasons sigh
in their forest keep
fearing all is lost
to this land of frost
for ever and a day
come what may
we linger and dream
forever
while I pray
there will come a day
fleet and strong
to take this boy along
Over the shore
of my feelings and more
it will carry me higher
than ever before
And breaking the chains
of what ever remains
I would fly
Over a sea
that's been harboring me
with its logical gravity
intimately
Reaching a place
of such beauty and grace
I would sigh
And senses are forgotten here
I am what ever may appear
for I am soul and I am wish
that I could stay
for ever and a day
That I could stay
for ever and a day
come what may
to savor the light
forever
and I pray
there will come a day
fleet and strong
to take this boy along
Evening falls
with her silent cast
and her mystic sigh
Curtain calls
by a distant past
tell me I should try
to conceive
what is really real
what is really me
and perceive
what I really feel
what I really see
to be truly free
for ever and a day
come what may
to walk in the light
forever
so I pray
there will come a day
fleet and strong
to take this boy along
so I pray
there will come a day
fleet and strong
to take this boy along
