In my room lying on my bed
The air is heavy, hot, and still
Lady Luck has left me or I'm under the wings of destiny
Which is true I wait for time to tell

I dream that fog surrounds me
I dream this on a restless summer night
It cloaks, it's all around me
And when it's there I feel that all is right
You see this fog it frees me
When no one else can see me I can hide
I lie awake and dream that fog rolls in

My mind roams cross-oceans and years
The time being's become a dead end
Last time I rolled the dice there flashed the eyes of a snake
So I sit and wait for my time to come round again

I dream that fog surrounds me
I dream this on a restless summer night
It cloaks, it's all around me
And when it's there I feel that all is right
You see this fog it frees me
When no one else can see me I can hide
I lie awake and dream that the fog rolls in
Rolls in through the night
In the chill of its caress everything is all right
But with the morning sun, my dreams burn away
They've vanished with the night
