If I could see the sky above   And my mind could be set free   As wild white horses reached the shore   I'd stand alone and oversee      And if the bush before me burns   Should I turn my eyes away?   And still the voices I can hear   As clear to me as light of day      I believed in my dreams   Nothing could change my mind   (Nothing could change my mind)   Now I know what they mean   How could I be so blind?      Cold sands of time   (Winds that blow as cold as ice)   Sounds that come in the night   Shall hide what is left of me   Come from paradise      I've been through times when no one cared   (Words that were mine)   I've seen clouds in empty skies   (Clouds in empty skies)   When one kind word meant more to me   (Shall last as a memory)   Than all the love in paradise      I believed in my dreams   Nothing could change my mind   (Nothing can save me, nothing can save me, nothing can save me)   Till I found what they mean   Nothing can save me now      And all my days are trances   And all my nightly dreams   Are where thy gray eye glances   And where thy footstep gleams   In what ethereal dances   By what eternal streams
