Cold stone beneath my feet Wrapped in furs and dressing gown November night caressed my face The only fond touch I allow Moonlight floods my bedroom through the window where I gaze From far above the mad and merry crowd
Candlelight and laughter warms their windows, crease their faces Around the bonfire in the square, the songs of all their ages They're the lost and broken, I'm their keeper in the keep But they sing words that I can't bear to speak aloud
They sing of love, they sing of regret Time doesn't wait for the dead They sing of hope, they sing of fears They sing of friends they lost to years So don't wait until your life is over Say your piece now Or join the lost souls in my Almosttown
Now I spend eternity with songs I never wrote Peace in isolation, in the fortress I call home Perched in a stone gesture looming lonely in the sky Musing on those endless might-have-beens
While they sing of love, they sing of regret Time doesn't wait for the dead They sing of hope, they sing of fears They sing of friends they lost to years So keep your dream alive Never bend or bow Or you'll join the lost souls in my Almosttown
Did I choose the wrong fate? Will I ever know? Realising too late Don't know where to go All those years spent dreaming, fighting Never knowing why I can't deny what I have always been
They sing of love, they sing of regret Time doesn't wait for the dead They sing of hope, they sing of fears They sing of friends they lost to years So keep your dream alive Never bend or bow Or you'll join the lost souls in my AlmosttownTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
