From the recording Hereafter
Lyrics
Verse 1
Slow is the hand that waits for my decision
Tender is the trap that springs to life for me again
Whispered were the words that warned me of the telling
Of fables told to a child who cried out for a friend
Bridge 1
Can you feel the moment flowing
I will wait for it’s return
Chorus 1
If I sleep ‘til the end this dream will last forever
So I close my eyes against unwelcome dawn
I remain in the safety of a haze that draws together
Every urge I feel for fight or flight again
Verse 2
Slow was the breath escaping this religion
Shallow was the gesture that offered me advice
Quicker now forgotten were the moods that tamed the temper
That tore apart the only heart that refused to fracture twice
Bridge 2
Can you feel the moment leaving
I will wait for it’s return
Chorus 2
If I sleep ‘til the end this dream will last forever
So I close my eyes against unwelcome dawn
I remain in the safety of a haze that draws together
Every urge I feel for fight or flight again
Mid8
Compassion is a comfort that settles on your face
The passion of the promise will never be replaced
Chorus 3
If I sleep ‘til the end this dream will last forever
So I close my eyes against unwelcome dawn
I remain in the safety of a haze that draws together
Every urge I feel for fight or flight again
This dream will last forever
