Dream Theater Sorrounded Lyrics

Sorrounded Lyrics

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
head

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
he 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 that I could take
And now I've only habits left to
break
Tonight I'll still be lying here
Surrounded
In all the light
