Lyrics

When I fell asleep it was just twilight
When I woke my hair was long and white
I was hungrier than I'd ever been
I felt my face, my cheeks were sunken in
All my life I've never seen a ghost
Some shadows, flickers, will-o-the wisps at most
But I've heard about people sleeping through
The best parts of their lives, now haven't you
I slept through everything, like some Egyptian king
Is this the afterlife? Did I have kids, a house, a wife?
Where did the time go? Where did the time go?
I'm asking you and you and you don't know
And can I get back? Can you get back?
Or should we fade to black and sleep again?
I wet my lips and looked around
Tried to call out but couldn't make a sound
Birds were singing up above my head
The sky was turning from black to blood red
Through clouded eyes I saw my wrinkled face
And of what I was before, only a trace
On shaky steps I headed east
I could greet the new day one more time at least
Out to the golden dawn, through the mists of Avalon
Down these empty streets, forward, not retreat
Where did the time go? Where did the time go?
I'm asking you and you and you don't know
And can I get back? Can you get back?
Or should we fade to black and sleep again?
