The Edge of Dawn

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 the falls in 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 girls pleas
Live only for a breath and then they fade
Don't ever take back your kind hand
Lest precious love slip away like times sand
Only we will know all that was lost Scars
that we can't erase, show us life's true cost
The blue moonlight cuts across our sight
As pure and clear as a ringing bell Reaching for us in the night
As the wind calms my thoughts
I held strong on this terrace
I feel at peace
Carried away by the winds song
Open the door and walk away
Never give in to the call of yesterday Memories that made
this days sublime These ruined halls entomb stolen time...
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
