of the longing
And i hear it say

What secrets sleep in the heart of the night and my dreams of
salvation are
Slipping out of sight in the shimmering moments of the twilight

Of the tide whisper on the wind of a rescue savior in time

And all this time i've been fighting my own private war and all
this time
You're the peace i searched for
Chorus
Yeah
