Savatage - Alone You Breathe lyrics

[Taken from Handful of Rain] [Music & Words: Jon Oliva, Paul O'Neill] You were never one for waiting Still I always thought you'd wait for me Have you from your dream awakened And from where you are what do you see Which of us is now in exile Which in need of amnesty Are you now but an illusion In my mind alone you breathe You believed in things that I will never know You were out there drowning but it never showed Till inside a rain swept night you just let go You're thrown it all away And now we'll never see The ending of the play The grand design The final line And what was meant to be In the dark a distant runner Now has disappeared into the night Leaving us to stand and wonder Staring from this end into your life You believed in things that I will never know You were out there drowning but it never showed Till inside a rain swept night you just let go You've thrown it all away And now we'll never see The ending of the play The grand design The final line And what was meant to be And if this is all illusion Nothing more than pure delusion Clinging to a fading fantasy Like Icarus who heeds the calling Of a sun but now is falling As the feathers of his life fall free Can you see See Tomorrow And after You tell me what am I to do I stand here Believing That in the dark There is a clue Perhaps inside This midnight sky Perhaps tomorrow's new born eyes Or then again We'll never know And after all This was the show What am I to do Gotta get back Gotta get back Gotta get back What am I to do Gotta get back Gotta get back Gotta get back What am I to do Standing on a dream Isn't what it seems Could we then reclaim a dream refused Knowing what we know Could we let it go Realizing that all the years are used Tomorrow and after You tell me what am I to do I stand here believing That in the dark there is a clue I am the way I am the light I am the dark inside the night I hear your hopes I feel your dreams And in the dark I hear your screams Tomorrow and after You tell me what am I to do I stand here believing That in the dark there is a clue
