Reach for my hand,
I'll soar away
Into the dawn
Oh, I wish I could stay

Here in cherished halls,
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays

Faint lights pass through colored glass
In this beloved place
Silver shines, the world dines
A smile on each face

As joy surrounds, comfort abounds
and I can feel I'm breaking free
For just this moment lost in time.
I am finally me

Yet still I hide
Behind this mask that I have become
My blackened heart
Scorched by flames, a force I can't run from

As I live out
Each peaceful day,
Deep in my soul
Oh, I know I can't stay

So I wish I
Could hide away,
Hold tight to what I love
Keep cruel fate at bay

As the rain falls on the path
I chase your shadow
I don't feel a single drop,
Or the ground below

Then you turn to me and I
Stop before I know
And the lie upon my lips
I let it go

Cross my heart
Making vows I know will be betrayed
A sad boy's pleas
Live only for a breath and then they fade

I look to you
Like a red rose
Seeking the sun
No matter where it goes

I long to stay,
Where the light dwells
To guard against the cold
That I know so well

Reach for my hand,
I'll soar away
Into the dawn
Oh, I wish I could stay

Here in cherished halls,
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays

Reach for my hand,
I'll soar away
Into the dawn
Oh, I wish I could stay

Here in cherished halls,
In peaceful days
I fear the edge of dawn
Knowing time betrays
