Miles of silence between us
Tangled stories keeping us apart
Miles of dreaming always waiting for the dawn
Drifting through a sea of stars
I know you want me
I know you need me
I know you can’t walk away
It’s your move now
It’s your move now
While you’re dreaming, waiting for the dawn
I’ll be the voice in your shadows, saying
I know you want me
I know you need me
I know you can’t walk away
It’s your move now
It’s your move now

You know what you do to me
You know how you get me going
You know I’m halfway to heaven
Wanna, wanna get a little closer
Closer
Closer to the stars
Closer to your horizon
Closer to where you are
Closer to you
I know you’re a million miles an hour
Getting close to the speed of light
We shine, like a thousand suns together
Lighting up the darkest night
Closer
Closer to the stars
Closer to your horizon
Closer to where you are
Closer to you

Maybe I don't know you like I thought
Maybe you're a maze, and I will never find the end
You're a man of mysteries, I know
Keeping everybody out, but I'm the girl who won't let go
Let me in
Don't hide
Let me see you
From the inside
If you think I'll walk away you're wrong
You can show me the worst of you, cause I've loved you all along
Let me in
Don't hide
Let me see you
From the inside

Round me falls the night
Saviour, be my light
Through the hours in darkness shrouded
Let me see thy face unclouded
Let thy glory shine
In this heart of mine
Earthly work is done
Earthly sounds are none
Rest in sleep and silence seeking
Let me hear thee softly speaking
In my spirit's ear
Whisper I am near
Blessed heavenly light
Shining through earth's night
Voice, that oft of love hath told me;
Arms, so strong to clasp and hold me;
Thou thy watch wild keep
Saviour o'er my sleep
Lyrics: W. Romanis 1824-1899

Life's a one way train
Just a one way ride
Time comes for everyone
No matter how you try and hide
There's a cold wind coming
Couldn't stop it if I tried
Couldn't stop it if I tried
Funny how a lifetime
Seems like no time at all
Another love turns into
Just a picture on the wall
There's a cold wind coming
Couldn't stop it if I tried
Couldn't stop it if I tried
[Solo]
There's a cold wind coming
Couldn't stop it if I tried
Couldn't stop it if I tried
There’s a wild wind blowing through the city tonight
Like the rhythm of a runaway song
And it’s got me going, going halfway mad
To get out where I belong
Cause I’m bleeding memories and fighting ghosts
Everywhere I go
All I know is I’ve gotta escape
I need the open road
And oh, can’t you hear it calling saying,
Drive on, drive on, drive on
Drive on, drive on, drive on
Did you ever believe in magic spells
'Cause there’s I wanna try
It tastes like summer and goes down smooth
Like the sun in late July
Open the windows wide
Get a little drunk on the open air
Somewhere between the stars and the city
It’ll steal your soul I swear
And oh, can’t you hear it calling saying,
Drive on, drive on, drive on
Drive on, drive on, drive on
And oh, it’s in my blood like thunder, saying
Drive on, drive on, drive on
Drive on, drive on, drive on

Now the day is drawing
To it’s quiet end
Another day of wandering
On fragile paper penned
And nothing will remain here
But memories and ghosts
Fair sunshine’s light has faded
’Tis darkness coming close
Awaiting in the shadows
The dying of the light
One candle lonely flickering
And blurring in my sight
I lift my soul to heaven
And find no answer there
The truth is never closer
Than in midnight’s solemn air
We fade as does the twilight
O’er plains and rolling hills
We carry each the longing
No word can ever fill
And only hope eternal
Unlikely as it seems
Can keep us through the silence
Of evil’s darkest dreams
Though eyes see only darkness
The earth is turning still
Soon will the light awaken
As heaven’s law has willed
And in the morning’s dawning
O let me not forget
The speeding of the hours
To evening’s silhouette

You’re made of magic
That I cannot touch
Your voice is music
That I’ve never even heard
And when you turn
The whole world turns with you
And in my sleep
Somehow I know you’re there
[Chorus]
And I don’t love you
I don’t even know your name
I don’t know where you’re from
Don’t know who you are
I don’t love you
But I’d like to try
Whisper your secrets
to the midnight breeze
The stars will carry
your light to me
And when you find
You’re caught in the crosswinds
Somewhere I’m waiting to be your safe way home
[Repeat Chorus]
Somewhere you’re sleeping
Somewhere you’re dancing
Somewhere you’re the shadow of a dream
Somewhere you’re waiting
Somewhere you’re wanting
And above us only the wild, wandering sky
[Repeat Chorus]
