Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As the light is leaving
Silently retreating down an empty hall
Suddenly a stirring
Finally recurring where I let it fall
[Verse 2]
Following the wanderings of a dream
A dream that keeps my soul alive
Believing in an open sky
Believing in a love
[Verse 3]
Dancing with a stranger
Careless of the danger there within his smile
While the dew was forming
Breathing in the morning like a sleeping child
[Verse 4]
If the memory of the light should fade
Horizons reaching cold and blue
Until your heart is free to fly
Then I will keep the sun for you
[Verse 5]
Until you touch the open sky
Then I will keep the sun for you
[Verse 6]
As the light is leaving
Silently retreating down an empty hall
Suddenly a stirring
Finally recurring where I let it fall
[Verse 7]
Following the wanderings of a dream
A dream that keeps my soul alive
Believing in an open sky
Believing in a love
[Verse 8]
Dancing with a stranger
Careless of the danger there within his smile
While the dew was forming
Breathing in the morning like a sleeping child
[Verse 9]
If the memory of the light should fade
Horizons reaching cold and blue
Until your heart is free to fly
Then I will keep the sun for you
[Verse 10]
Until you touch the open sky
Then I will keep the sun for you
Until we never say goodbye
Then I will keep the sun for you
