Album: Lingua Mortis (1996)

All This Time


NOW, AS I HAD A LOOK AT YOU
IT TOOK A HEARTBEAT AND I KNEW
THAT THE CANDLE OF MY LIFE WAS BURNING SHORTER

YOU TURNED ME 'ROUND TO FACE MYSELF
TO MAKE ME TRUST IN WHAT I AM
NOW, AFTER ALL THAT I HAVE DONE IT MAKES ME WONDER I'M AROUND

NOW THE NIGHT HAS GONE, BETTER DAYS TO COME
ALL THIS TIME I HAVE BEEN AFRAID, IT IS NOT TOO LATE...

ALL THIS TIME WHILE WE TALKED MY THOUGHTS COLLIDED
ALL THIS TIME I COULD HAVE SSEN BUT I WAS BLIND
ALL THIS TIME...

I THOUGHT I'D NEVER SEE THE DAY
THAT IN MYSELF I'D FEEL THIS WAY
WE ARE THE MEANING AND WE KNOW. FOREVER DIFFERENT - THE SAME

NOW THE NIGHT HAS GONE, BETTER DAYS TO COME
ALL THIS TIME I HAVE STRAINED MY MND, WAITING FOR A SIGN

TIME IS LIKE A RIVER THAT IS RUNNING OUT TO SEA
WE CAN'T TOUCH THE GROUND, SO GRAB A BLADE OF STRAW
IF YOU SWIM ON WAVES OF TRUST YOU CANNOT EVEN DROWN
WHEN YOU HIT THE SHORES OF LOVE YOU CANNOT DIE...
