Lyrics

Colours burning in your eyes
The effervescent morning
Broken china at your side
I’ll take it as a warning

You say we’re waiting
For the night to drown us
You say we’re dreaming
And the world will wake us

And I’ll be waiting ’til you reach the shore
Oh I’ll be waiting there at Heaven’s door
And I’ll be waiting ’til the world subsides
This room is empty in the fading light

Figures in the motorcade
You know where, you showed me
I sense you there behind the gate
Why don’t you just hold me

You say I’m dwelling
On this bitterness
I’m only breaking
For your sweet caress

And I’ll be waiting ’til you reach the shore
Oh I’ll be waiting there at Heaven’s door
And I’ll be waiting ’til the world subsides
This room is empty in the fading light

Oh it’s the frozen hour
Precious star bellow the waves
The frozen hour
Angel in another place

Flowers on the place you lie
Effervescent morning
The cold is all I have tonight
I never read the warning

You say we’re waiting
For the night to drown us
You say we’re dreaming
And the world will wake us

And I’ll be waiting ’til you reach the shore
Oh I’ll be waiting there at Heaven’s door
And I’ll be waiting ’til the world subsides
This room is empty in the fading light

You never know just what you have
Until it’s gone
You never know just what you have
Until it’s gone
Until it’s gone
