Night time, see the castles burning    Smoke in the skies and tears in their eyes    As the world keeps turning    Sleep now, hear a distant thunder    It's far away, at least for today    Close your eyes and wonder       Spring turns so quickly to summer    Summer so quickly to fall    It seemed far away, or it was yesterday    When time didn't matter at all    And then you met your winter    While dancing with her daughters    Till tired and cold    Were much wiser than bold    You wait for tomorrow to call       All of your life you have waited alone for a Savior    He's not coming    A carousel horse, who is constantly lost    Standing still but always running    And all of those things that you needed so bad    You have found they mean nothing    Oh Lord, I'm coming home       I'm searching through the haze that's drifting through my mind    Stare in the looking glass and wonder who I'll find    No one would listen to a man upon the water    Until they were old and their mountains of gold couldn't buy any more time       All of your life you have waited alone for the Savior    He's not coming    A carousel horse, who is constantly lost    Standing still but always running    And all of those things that you needed so bad    You have found they mean nothing    And Oh Lord, I'm coming home
