He seems alone and silent
Thoughts remain without an answer
Afraid and uninvited
He slowly drifts away
Moved by desire and fear
Breaking delicate wings
Lifting shadows
Off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water
Into an ocean
As the rain is pouring down
Tears of sorrow wash his mind
Drifting with the current
This stream of life flows on
He seems alone and silent
Waiting on his hands and knees
The chill of winter's darkness
Sits quietly
Moved by desire and fear
He takes a few steps away
Lifting shadows
Off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water
Into an ocean
And she listens, oh
Oh and she listens openly
He pours his soul into the water
Reflecting the mystery
She carries him away
And the winds die slowly
And she listens openly
Oh and she listens openly
Lifting shadows
Off a dream once broken
She can turn a drop of water
Into an ocean
Lifting shadows off a dream
Lifting shadows off a dream
In the Know
