To Live One More Night

First snow fell last winter
Covering the scene of today
Drawing down beneath the flow of river still

Veil of time through the lashes of vibes
Unseen mirror in eyes
A call of the wind across the sea
Reflecting no more for me

Where have all the colours ceased?
Why is all the light gone dark?

Where is the awe I used to live for?
Where is the wonder of starfall?
Where is the light leading me still
Through the dream I feel so real
Into the dark to my lost heart
Give me a hope to live one more night

Is there a path that will lead me through the mist
To the farthest gates beyond the dreams?
Endless storm beyond the world
I drew in loneliness ungone

Unveil my eyes to show me the truth
Be the one to guide me through
Drown with me in deep midnight blue
Save a heart I kept once for you

Where is the awe I used to live for?
Where is the wonder of starfall?
Where is the light leading me still
Through the dream I feel so real
Into the dark to my lost heart
Give me a hope to live one more night
