If you find me in a gloom, or catch me in a dream
Inside my lonely room, there is no in between
Whispering pines, rising of the tide
If only one star shines, that's just enough to get inside
I will wait until it all goes 'round
With you in sight, the lost are found
Foghorn through the night, calling out to sea
Protect my only light, 'cause she once belonged to me
Let the waves rush in, let the seagulls cry
For if I live again, these hopes will never die
I can feel you standing there
But I don't see you anywhere
Standing by the well, wishing for the rains
Reaching to the clouds, for nothing else remains
Drifting in a daze, when evening will be done
Try looking through a haze, at an empty house in the cold, cold sun
I will wait until it all goes round
With you in sight, the lost are found
If I have weaknesses, don't let them blind me
or camouflage all I am wary of
I could be sailing in seizures of laughter
or crawling out from under the heel of love
Do my prayers remain unanswered, like a beggar at your sleeve?
Olodumare is smiling in heaven, smiling in heaven I do believe.
Reach in the darkness, a reach in the dark
Reach in the darkness, a reach in the dark
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To glide away from the razor or a knife
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To dominate the impossible in your life
Always a stranger when strange isn't fashionable
Fashion is rich people waving at cars
Or it's a dealer in drugs or in passion
Lies of a nature we've heard before
Do my prayers remain unanswered, like a beggar at your sleeve?
Balalu-aye spins on his crutches, says leave if you want, if you want to leave.
Reach in the darkness, a reach in the dark
Reach in the darkness, a reach in the dark
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To glide away from the razor or a knife
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To dominate the impossible in your life
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To glide away from the razor or a knife
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy
To dominate the impossible in your life
