Dream Theatre Surrounded Lyrics

Surrounded 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
mirrow 

Of his heart and soul she 

dances 

She was dancing
thru the night 

above his bed 

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 hears 

her call 

"Let the light surround
you" 



Once lost but I was found 

When I heard the stained
glass 

shatter all arround me 

I send 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
