Lyrics
The girl is lost in the mist
Swept away by the crowd
Surging through the streets
So I take a few hurried steps
Then break into a run
I break into a run
I catch another glimpse
And then she's gone again
I can hear an echo of her voice
Somewhere far away
Her fragile form appears
Isolated now
Eyes blurred with tears
In a lost inner world
The slow striking of a clock
Reminds her of a time
Once upon a time
The sun is low in the sky
It binds her to the shadows
Darkening the air
I cannot leave her there
I cannot leave her there
All alone in dark narrow streets
In a place no one ever leaves
Will she listen to me
Will she accept my word
Or will she just look away
With those no coloured eyes
There's a soft rushing of the wind
In the cedar trees
In the cedar trees
Branches gilded by the moon
The purest silver light
Shining through the leaves
I find myself all alone
Frozen in the glass
Of a mirror out of time
So I take a few hurried steps
Then break into a run
I break into a run
