Ship With No Sails

Verse 1:

There's a rumour in the night,

A distant face that memory

Has brought back to my door

I assumed it would fade away

Time didn't kill it after all…

Bridge 1:

Why do we try to hide from yesterday?

Erase our footsteps in the sand

Pre-chorus:

The gate is open but it's cold and dark

The siren calls from beyond

You pay the price - and you pray for salvation

But all you get is desolation

Chorus:

Hear the sound of the clashing waves and the wailing wind as a new day dawns

All your dreams washed up on the shore are now faded and gone

Always standing on the edge of paradise, but you never took that step

There's a ship waiting on the shore and you cannot find the sails…

Verse 2:

Seasons wasted wondering why

You were too weak to move on

A silent scream, an empty cry for

Someone to carry you home

Pre-chorus:

The demon tries to take control again

Nightmares appear in your mind

Afraid to fly - like a bird in a cage

No chance to leave this earthly prison

(Chorus)

Break:

There's a newborn star that lights your way in the dark

You have to reach out and take it.

All the poison you drank will be drained from your heart

Come and dance with the minstrel - Leave your fears behind

The vision's fading,

The winds are blowing,

But no one answers the call

Bridge 2:

You always tried to hide from yesterday

Remove the traces of your past

(Chorus)
