Carried away in the moment when I saw her eyes Disappear again Out in the pouring rain If I should stay and tomorrow Denied me the morning light Will my reasons still sustain? Prowling the aisles of memory To rattle the walls inside We'll always be there Safe and sound That burden is mine for too long The departure of all that is fond's akin To death itself In all its glory From the zenith to the pit Caught in the arms of a crippling defeat Holding on now Until the last of hopes And then we rise Back from the siege Yesterday's cries Tomorrow's conceit All within you A piteous trial Crowning the weak A taste of denial A taste so unique All within me Tied are my hands Tired are my feet Shifting the sands Of time and space I too shall pass this burden on
