[Verse 1]
I hear an awful song on the breeze
Listening through the seals and rigging of my prison on the seas
And kiss my lover face I see when I close my eyes [?]
[Chorus]
And as the days of my life arrive
Distant memories haunt my mind
I see momentary glimpses shadows of innocence
My sins I've left behind
Memories of those of my only chance for love
And the place I long to run
[Verse 2]
Can I ever explain
Longing for a man who only brings me sorrow and pain
Who holds my fate in such deep stain
He can barely speak god's name
And tell me why is my heart still drawn
To a love I know is wrong
Sometimes all it is within me
Longs for god to give me the strength just move on
And how can I face this sleepless night
And another tearful dawn
[Chorus]
And as the days of my life arrive
Distant memories haunt my mind
I see momentary glimpses shadows of innocence
My sins I've left behind
Would I be there in your arms tonight
And why must I face this sleepless night
And another tearful dawn
And another tearful dawn
