Been runnin' away so long from the day Into the strange night of stone to fade away As the light is gently bleedin' out of my soul Penetratin' the evening as I ride on this endless road But you can't turn back the time It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born wasting the dawn Like a rose growin' from the Christ's thorn wasting the dawn
Been waitin'for you so long little bird of prey To fly me higher to the brighter day Where the lizard lingers long under the sun Forgettin' the night darkest july Paris '71 But you can't turn back the time It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born wasting the dawn Like a rose growin' from the Christ's thorn wasting the dawn ...
