I was oh so far from home

Waiting for the dawn

Wandering around these city streets alone

All the faces look the same

No-one knows my name

Spending mornings, hating what I know

I've been awake for so long

What am I running from?

This journey leading me to come back home

They say, when the rain has been

The grass'll turn to green

The darkest time is just before the dawn

Remember watching the sun rising over rooftops in the morning

Waking up, stepping out into the cool

Remember watching the sun rising over oceans in the morning

(?) are coming down and we're alone

And all the boys'll be back home

Getting rowdy at the bar

Arguing about the game that they just saw

And all the little things that change

Some things stay the same

Seem significant, from a distant shore

So I am back here once again

On this journey to the end

Faded is the ever-searching soul

Now the children of our own

Play the games that we have known

Our kingdoms are the seeds that we have sown

Remember watching the sun rising over rooftops in the morning

Waking up, stepping out into the cool

Remember watching the sun rising over oceans in the morning

(?) are coming down and we're alone

Now the children of our own

Play the games that we have known

Our kingdoms are the seeds that we have sown

Remember watching the sun rising over rooftops in the morning

Waking up, stepping out into the cool

Remember watching the sun rising over oceans in the morning

(?) are coming down and we're alone
