I've climbed this hill too many times Now passion seems like it's a crime My memories leaves dead on the line Tomorrow's finished all that fine fine wine
I've run this road for so many years Rememb'ring how I lived each curve And now my screen's filled up with tears I can't see through the pain I leaned No future now without the fear I'll get too near to love that burns The night was once, the night was twice The night was mine
I dealt in dreams until they faded Into ghosts in headlong flight Felt every mile that I paid For reaching out towards the light The dancers thought it was a raid And disappeared into the night That once was mine
I've sailed the storm so many ways Desires vanish in the haze There's only ashes from the blaze The future's losing all those long love days
I've flown these skies both dark and light But now my path's locked up with snow Most moments felt so very right But I can't break the ice that grows No morning now without the chance Of petals falling from the rose
The night was once, the night was twice The night was mine
I traded steel until it fractured Into fields of crumbling rust All the precautions that I packed Were colours I could never trust The swimmer's getting out of sight She's disappeared into the night That once was mine...
