Who can say what moves my hand, who can see the things I've planned?
|
All is not as it should be, dealing with reality,
|
And it comes when nighttime falls,
|
Like a voice the darkness calls.
|
|
Sometimes I feel I lose my place, when pressure blinds me like a storm,
|
And I'm resigning from this race, I need the night to keep me warm,
|
In darkness, forever deep, forever deep in Silvery Sleep.
|
|
Once upon a time a king, full of promise, full of spring,
|
Fool at heart, and fooled by pride, foolishly he let love die,
|
So the king and kingdom falls,
|
Like a voice the darkness calls.
|
|
Can you say what moves my hand, can you see the things I've planned?
|
All is not the way it seems, time has taken all my dreams,
|
Like a friend the curtain falls, like a voice the darkness calls.
