If in the morning I stand to face no more tomorrow
Or the dawn wakes me up to meet me with all these sorrow
I would never mind nor fear to be cast upon by shadows
If in the last time that I fall, I’d behold you’d never go.

If you would let the sun smile to me once more
If you would color up my life and touch it by your glance
Then I’d be strong enough to take the last stance
While watching heaven’s tears fall on the Earth’s fence.

When the sun refused to shine and give a crimson shine
Or the moon stroll away and leave a lonely lullabye
The song within my spirit in a greatly unsung rhyme
Will help me stand the pain to which the only cure is time.

When the mud embraced this life, I’d pray to God above
To sing to you my soul against the cold out there
For beyond the light years distance between our worlds apart
You remain the saviour from the dreamer I’ve become.
