Lyrics

Searching for diamonds in a sulphur mine
Leaning on props which are rotten
Hoping for anything, looking for a sign
That I am not forgotten
Lost in a labyrinth of future mystery
Tracing my steps, all mistaken
Trusting to everything, praying it can be
That I am not forsaken

I wait by the door, wondering
When you will come and keep me warm
I pray for the end of the night
Hoping the light will still the storm
Which presently entraps me;
Helpless sea-monster stranded on the shore
Marooned in an ecstasy of waiting
I yearn, although knowing that I shall dive no
More
In the tide already racing

My lungs burst to cry: "finally
How could you leave me here to die?
I freeze in the chill of this place
With no friendly face to smile goodbye-
How could you let it happen?"

How could you let it happen?
Dreams, hopes and promises, fragments out of
Time
All of these things have been spoken;
But still you don't understand how it feels when I'm
Waiting for them to be broken
