For the light in your eyes I will hold you For the light in your eyes I will take on your name For the light in your eyes I will scream in silence So I'll gather my thoughts They can go up in flames For a moment I was almost sleeping For a moment caught up in a bad dream For a moment I was nearly drowning And woke up at last with only wet feet And woke up at last with only wet feet The nights are so long And I can't find the state of mind I'm searching for So I won't be afraid anymore And I will I will search for the time I have patience I will search for the time I'll go on again I will search for the time that I'll be able To laugh and to cry for the time that goes by For the time that goes by The nights are so long And I can't find the state of mind I'm searching for So I won't be afraid anymore For the light in your eyes I will hold you For the light in your eyes I will take on your name For the light in your eyes I will scream in silence So I'll gather my thoughts The nights are so long And I can't find the state of mind I'm searching for So I won't be afraid anymore The nights are so long
