These Dreams

Spare a little candle, save some light for me

Figures up ahead moving in the trees

White skin in a linen, perfume on my wrist

Full moon that hangs over these dreams in the mist

Darkness on the edge, shadows where I stand

I search for the time on a watch with no hands

I want to see you clearly, come closer than this

All I remember are dreams in the mist

These dreams go on when I close my eyes

Every second of the night I live another life

These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside

Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

Is it clockin' dagger, could it be spring or fall

I walk without a cut through a stain glass wall

Weaker in my eyesight, the candle in my grip

And words that have no form are falling from my lips

These dreams go on when I close my eyes

Every second of the night I live another life

These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside

Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

The sweetest song is silence that I've ever heard

It's funny how your feet in dreams never touch the earth

In a wood full of princes, freedom is a kiss

But the prince hides his face from these dreams in the mist

These dreams go on when I close my eyes

Every second of the night I live another life

These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside

Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

These dreams go on when I close my eyes

Every second of the night I live another life

These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside

Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
