Spare a little candle, save some light for me
Figures up ahead, moving in the trees
White skin in linen, perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist
Darkness on the edge, shadows where I stand
I search for the time on a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly, come closer to this
But all I remember are the dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night, I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away
Is it cloak and dagger, could it be spring or fall?
I walk without a cut through a stained-glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight, a candle in my grip
And words that have no form, falling from my lips
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night, I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away
There's something out there I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there I can't resist
The sweetest song in silence that I've ever heard
Funny how your feet in dreams never touch the earth
In a world full of princes, freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face from dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night, I live another life
These dreams sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night, I live another life
These dreams sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake, the further I'm away
