Sunrise on the eastside, sunset on the west
I've emptied my pockets and given my best
My toes keep on dipping in waters unknown
And ripples they carry to shore
The cracks in the sidewalk which trace my path home
Leave nothing but starry nights outside alone
The minutes seem longer, the incense burn slower
And photos still on the wall
PreChorus:
Well you may be far and time run slow
But this old clock has freed my soul
Cause tomorrow morning you'll be coming home
Chorus:
So dream on and rise with the morning sun
I'll pick you up by the railway at about half past noon
Then all along I'll hold you with my own two arms
And finally our long awaited sunrise will rise for two
Upon closer inspection, I grasp the reflection
In windows and mirrors on the wall
Got nothing but smiles, you've traveled the miles
Till phone calls diminish to none
Now sitting in sand, my sunrise in hand
We're begging and pleading for more
Cuz despite our requests, you must set in the west
But when morning comes you'll be back again
PreChorus:
Well you may be far and time run slow
But this old clock has freed my soul
Cause tomorrow morning you'll be coming home
Chorus:
So dream on and rise with the morning sun
I'll pick you up by the railway at about half past noon
Then all along I'll hold you with my own two arms
And finally our long awaited sunrise will rise for two
Bridge:
You know either way, at the break of day
The sun will rise
I've been waiting here for you to come
And tomorrow you'll arrive
CHORUS
Yea finally our long awaited sunrise will rise for two
Yea finally our long awaited sunrise will rise for two
