DREAM THEATER - Surrounded lyrics

rate me

Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late<br>And sometimes all I want to do is wait<br>The shadow I've been hiding in has fled from me today<br><br>I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye<br>But I will raise a shelter to the sky<br>And beneath this<br>Star tonight I'll lie<br>She will slowly yield the light<br>As I awaken from the longest night<br><br>Dreams are shaking<br>Set sirens waking up tired eyes<br>With the light memories all rush into his head<br><br>By a candle stands a mirror<br>Of his heart and soul she dances<br>She was dancing through the night above his bed<br><br>And walking to the window<br>He throws the shutters out<br>Against the wall<br>And from an ivory tower hears her call<br>'let the light surround you'<br><br>It's been a long, long time<br>He's had awhile to hink it over<br>In the end he only sees the change<br>Light to dark<br>Dark to light<br>Light to dark<br>Dark to light<br><br>Heaven must be more than this<br>When angels waken with a kiss<br>Sacred hearts won't take the pain<br>But mine will never be the same<br><br>He stands before the window<br>His shadow slowly fading from the wall<br>And from an ivory tower he hears her call<br>'let the light surround you'<br><br>Once lost but I was found<br>When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me<br>I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill<br>But I will hold this one on high above me still<br>I once could see but now at last I'm blind<br><br>I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye<br>But I had given all than I could take<br>And now I've only habits left to break<br>Tonight I'll still be lying here<br>Surrounded in all the light
