Midnight
All alone in the room
Streetlights
Shadows dance in the gloom
Cold as ice
In the dark of the moon
Soft cries
From the silent cocoon
Castaway
Castaway
Dark sounds from the room next door
Heavy fall
I can hear through the wall
Stark light
No answer my call
This fight
There's no victor at all
Castaway
Castaway

Castaway
Castaway
One dream
Could it be true?
One hope
To see this through
One heart
Caught on the ropes
One love
Gone up in smoke
Castaway

Castaway
Castaway
So now
I just stand at the cross
Which path?
Should I take it, be lost?
Oh lord
Can't you give me a sign?
So peace
Of the heart could be mine
Castaway
Castaway
Castaway
Castaway
