Visiting Hours

Did you speak?

Did you say something to me?

Hear that sound?

That's the sound that sets you free

But the signs have lost their way

All the signs have lost their way

And no one speaks to me

Here and now

See the fear and paralyses

On these crowded dirty streets

On your knees and not your feet

And no one looks for me

In the shadows the corners meet

But if they could only see

How it was meant to be

The plans we devised

The dreams of grandeur

The years have passed me by

Was it worth waiting for

It's the rose that grows without a thorn

It's the rising sun before the dawn

And these tired eyes

I've tried to find the words

But these scars will still remain

And remind us who to blame

Oh and from the world we will be torn

Like a dream that dies before the dawn

I have searched the sky

The great divide for more

The plans we devised

The dreams of grandeur

The years of sacrifice

Was it worth waiting for?

And if we survive

The visiting hours

The years have passed me by

Was it worth waiting for?

The plans we devised

The dreams of grandeur

The years of sacrifice

Was it worth waiting for?

And if we survive

The visiting hours

The years have passed me by

Was it worth waiting for?

And if we survive
