No life's so short it can't turn around

You can't spend your life living underground

For from above you don't hear a sound

And I'm out here, waiting

I don't understand what you want me to be

It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am

But I know that it's all that you see



No life's so short that it never learns

No flame so small that it never burns

No page so sure that it never turns

And I'm out here, waiting

I don't understand what you want me to be

It's the dark you're hating, it's not who I am

But I know that it's all that you see



Can you live your life in a day, putting every moment in play?

Never hear a word that they say as the wheels go around



Tell me if you win would it show in a thousand years, who would know?



Can you live your life in a day

I've been waiting

Putting every moment in play?

Never hear a word that they say

I don't understand what you want me to be

As the wheels go around

Tell me if you win would it show

It's the dark you're hating

In a thousand years, who would know?

It's not who I am, but it is what you see

On this same piece of ground



I've been waiting

I don't understand what you want me to be

It's the dark you're hating

It's not who I am, but it is what you see



Can you live your life in a day

Putting every moment in play?

Never hear a word that they say

As the wheels go around

Tell me if you win would it show

In a thousand years, who would know?

On this same piece of ground



Tell me would you really want to

See me leave this night without you

Would you ever look about you

Wondering where we might be

New York is so far away now

Tokyo, Berlin and Moscow

Only dreams from here but somehow

One day that world we will see



I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand

I don't understand



What I see.



I swear on tomorrow, if you take this chance

Our lives are this moment, the music the dance

And here in this labyrinth of lost mysteries

I close my eyes on this night and you're all that I see



You're all that I see
