Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late   And sometimes all I want to do is wait   The shadow I've been hiding in has fled from me today      I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye   But I will raise a shelter to the sky and here beneath this star tonight I'll lie   She will slowly yield the light   As I awaken from the longest night      Dreams are shaking   Set sirens waking up tired eyes   With the light the memories all rush into his head      By a candle stands a mirror   Of his heart and soul she dances   She was dancing through the night above his bed      And walking to the window he throws the shutters out against the wall   And from an ivory tower hears her call   "Let light surround you"      It's been a long, long time   He's had a while to think it over   In the end he only sees the change   Light to dark   Dark to light   Light to dark   Dark to light      Heaven must be more than this   When angels waken with a kiss   Sacred hearts won't take the pain   But mine will never be the same      He stands before the window   His shadow slowly fading from the wall   And from an ivory tower hears her call   "Let the light surround you"      Once lost but I was found   When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me   I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill   But I will hold this one on high above me still   She whispers words to clear my mind   I once could see but now at last I'm blind      I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye   But I had given all than I could take   And now I've only habits left to break   Tonight I'll still be lying here   Surrounded in all the light
