I left the harbor late this night. The sky is dark, stars sparkles bright!
I'm heading out on open sea,
The feelings hit me like a gale and I was far beyond the pale,Regret fullness is killing me.
Once I though this was what I wanted,
if this is freedom I don't want to be apart of it!
Can you hear me, scream and shout! There's one star you can't put out!
There's a flame that burn the candle down, head up and kneel to the ground.
Please listen what I have to say, before you walk your own way.
There Is A Kingdom and you know its true, it's a kingdom for me and you.
(Chorus)
I'm walking through the wall, I scream as I fall.
Can you hear me? Our shadows left us all.
Can you hear me? This is the Boatman's call!
What am I to you now?
Can you share your love somehow?
Can I get another chance?
The time we had and shared, you know it makes me scared, in this miserable romance.
Its a game that I Won't play, if I there's no chance that you will stay, this one thing I can not get,
You play my heart like Russian roulette.
You can run but you can't hide, so face me and swallow your pride!
I've got one last thing to say,
so just don't walk away.
There Is A Kingdom and you know its true, it's a kingdom for me and you.
(Chorus)
I'm walking through the wall, I scream as I fall.
Can you hear me? Our shadows left us all.
Can you hear me? This is the Boatman's call! (x2)
