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 so long little bird of prey

to fly me higher to the brighter day

where the lizard lingers long

under the sun?

Forgettin' the night darkest july paris '71

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 (3x)
