Lyrics
How long can I stay
Contemplating the duration of staying
In this nowhere cafe
In a place devoid of significance
'fore night turns into day?
Before night transitions into day
I wonder why I'm so frightened of dawn
Questioning fear of the approaching dawn
All I have and all I know
All possessions and knowledge
Is this dream of you which keeps me living on
A dream of you sustains life
There's a moment when
A moment when old things rejuvenate
All old things become new again
Transformation of the familiar
But that moment might have come and gone
Uncertain if that moment has passed
All I have and all I know
All that's possessed and known
Is this dream of you which keeps me living on
A dream of you provides purpose
I look away but I keep seeing it
Averting gaze, yet persistent visions
I don't want to believe
Reluctance to accept
But I keep believing it
Continued belief against desire
Shadows dance upon the wall
Play of shadows on the wall
Shadows that seem to know it all
Shadows seemingly knowledgeable
Am I too blind to see
Questioning perception and insight
Is my heart playing tricks on me?
Doubting authenticity of emotions
I'm lost in the crowd, all my tears are gone
Feeling lost in a crowd, devoid of tears
All I have and all I know
All that's possessed and known
Is this dream of you which keeps me living on
A dream of you is a sustaining force
Everything I touch
Everything touched seems to fade
Seems to disappear
Disappearance in every touch
Everywhere I turn, you are always here
Your constant presence in every turn
I'll run this race until my earthly death
Commitment to persist until death
I'll defend this place with my dying breath
Defending a place with utmost dedication
From a cheerless room
In a joyless room
In a curtain gloom, I saw a star from Heaven fall
In a darkened space, witnessing a celestial event
I turned and looked again but it was gone
Observing a fleeting heavenly occurrence
All I have and all I know
All that's possessed and known
Is this dream of you which keeps me living on
A dream of you provides meaning to life
