Lyrics:

Reach for my hand, I'll soar away into the dawn, oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls, in peaceful days, I fear the Edge of Dawn knowing time betrays

Faint lights pass through colored glass in this beloved place
Silver shines, the world dines, a smile on each face
As joy surrounds, comfort abounds, and I can feel I'm breaking free
For just this moment lost in time, I am finally me

Yet still I hide behind this mask that I have become
My blackened heart, scorched by flames, a force I can't run from

I look to you like a red rose seeking the sun no matter where it goes
I long to stay where the light dwells to guard against the cold that I know so well

As I live out each peaceful day deep in my soul, oh, I know I can't stay
So I wish I could hide away hold tight to what I love, keep cruel fate at bay

As the rain falls on the path, I chase your shadow
I don't feel a single drop, or the ground below
Then you turn to me and I stop before I know
And the lie upon my lips I let it go

Cross my heart, making vows I know will be betrayed
A sad girl's pleas live only for a breath and then they fade

My dearest wish is that you'll know these tender thoughts that only seem to grow
They are as snow, melting away, yet seeking your warmth if only for a day

Don't ever take back your kind hand lest precious love slip away like time's sand
Only we will know all that was lost, scars that we can't erase show us life's true cost

The blue moonlight cuts across our sight
As pure and clear as a ringing bell, reaching for us in the night
As the wind calms my thoughts, I have strung on this terrace
I feel at peace, carried away by the wind's song

Open the door and walk away, never give in to the call of yesterday
Memories that made those days sublime, these ruined halls entomb stolen time

Reach for my hand, I'll soar away into the dawn, oh, I wish I could stay
Here in cherished halls, in peaceful days, I fear the Edge of Dawn knowing time betrays
