Surround

Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late

And sometimes all I want to do is wait

The shadow I’ve been hiding in has fled from me today

I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye

But I will raise a shelter to the sky

And beneath this

Star tonight I’ll lie

She will slowly yield the light

As I awaken from the longest night

Dreams are shaking

Set sirens waking up tired eyes

With the light memories all rush into his head

By a candle stands a mirror

Of his heart and soul she dances

She was dancing through the night above his bed

And walking to the window

He throws the shutters out

Against the wall

And from an ivory tower hears her call

’let the light surround you’

It’s been a long, long time

He’s had awhile to hink it over

In the end he only sees the change

Light to dark

Dark to light

Light to dark

Dark to light

Heaven must be more than this

When angels waken with a kiss

Sacred hearts won’t take the pain

But mine will never be the same

He stands before the window

His shadow slowly fading from the wall

And from an ivory tower he hears her call

’let the light surround you’

Once lost but I was found

When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me

I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill

But I will hold this one on high above me still

I once could see but now at last I’m blind

I know it’s easier to walk away than look it in the eye

But I had given all than I could take

And now I’ve only habits left to break

Tonight I’ll still be lying here

Surrounded in all the light
