In a dream he came to me, like a wizard in a make believe   Said he'd show me how to breathe   Said he'd carry me across the sea   Gonna wake me from my sleep   Pulling me up my soul to keep   Say the words but never speak   Make me strong but keep me weak      Want to touch the starry goat   See the archer with his bow   Watch the lion running free   And the scales that tip for me   And he's gonna take me there      Put out the stars, they are no use tonight   There are no words to make it right   From what has been to what has begun   Beneath the setting sun   Undream these empty hopes of mine   Unread your words between the lines   And draw some strength from what we've done   Beneath the setting sun      Now he's bringing me to my knees   From the veins the love did bleed   Like a film without a screen or a ghost that's never seen   Tried to stop him but he closed the door   Want to take him to a time before   See the things that I've seen   Be the people that I've been      Touch the fish in heavens sea   Watch the crab upon the beach   Fire glows between the twins   I carry water for my sins   And the sun is coming down      Put out the stars, they are no use tonight   There are no words to make it right   From what has been to what has begun   Beneath the setting sun   Undream these empty hopes of mine   Unread your words between the lines   And draw some strength from what we've done   Beneath the setting sun      You said you'd walk with me again   Like a bull you burst my dam   Horns as sharp as any ram   Now the scorpion has stung   I'm like a virgin on the run   I dont think he's coming home      Put out the stars they are no use tonight   There are no words to make it right   From what has been to what has begun   Beneath the setting sun      Unlearn each game we had to play   Unsay each promise that we made   The war is lost but the battle is won   Beneath the setting sun
