Been runnin' away so long from the day Into the strange night of stone To fade away As the light is gently Bleedin' out of my soul Penetratin' the evening As I ride On this endless road
But you can't turn back the time It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born Wastin' the dawn Like a rose growin' from the Christ's thorn Wastin' the dawn
Been waitin' for you for so long Little bird of prey To fly me higher To the brighter day Where the lizard lingers long Under the sun Forgetting the night Darkest July Paris '71
