World Stood Still

歌詞

The day you left this island was a cold December morning Tender was the redness of the sky And all along the shoreline sang birds in blissful glory I had never heard their cry before And nothing can prepare you for the final parting words As leaving marks its harshness on your mind And I've been ever waiting for the day the world stood still Waiting for the day you came to me Waking in a new day to parodies of disillusion Songs become your savior every day With so many faces just holding on in borrowed places Hoping for the day they make it home And nothing can prepare you for the final parting words As leaving marks its harshness on your mind And I've been ever waiting for the day the world stood still Waiting for the day you came to me Yours is the kingdom, the power and all its glory Yours is the world to call your own But careful child, hold on tight and pray your star keeps shining Like a silver moon to guide you home again And nothing can prepare you for the final parting words As leaving marks its harshness on your mind And I've been ever waiting for the day the world stood still Waiting for the day you came to me
