Tell me the reason why they've all gone Tell me the reason why we have to walk on Nobody embraces me The birds in the trees have gone but their songs never set me free Tell me the way to where I die in peace Tell me the weight of the soul about to cease Nobody praises me dancing with the phantom that used to be called a dream Oh my lord you never appear to me Oh my lord even when I lose my way I'm searching for the shadow of a figure that I don't know that we will never know The sunlight strokes my cheek It's so tender and warm This is the morning I was scared of, the morning I'm alone Oh my lord it's too dark to grab your hand Oh my lord that's swept away by the waves of night I'm searching for the light of the hope that I must have had I must have had before Oh my lord you never appear to me Oh my lord even when I lose my way I'm chasing the shadow of a figure that I don't know that we will never know
