The dying light of dawn
Is reflecting in my eyes
In this garden of pale gray
Which has become the scenery for my life

I have been mistaken
To hatch high ambitious plans
Now I'm lost within myself
An I see disorder lies at hand

But then I see
Right in front of me
The vision of my paradise
So inviting... and waiting just for me

I close my eyes - and still I see
A blinding light is showing me the way
Into my paradise,
Awakening to life

REF:
And I raise my eyes and face the sky
Where a newborn sun
Forever will shine on

While some discuss - if near the grave would
Be space for more I feel that I am safe
I look into the light
Which ended up the night

REF:
And I raise my mind
And wish the world
Would cease it's turn
In my paradise on earth

But then I see what cannot be
All those shadows move where light should be
Is this a dream, is this just illusion?

All my hopes, all that I've schemed
Here it came to life in all it's means
As the picture's shattered down
My hope is being drowned

So far away, so far away
I can see my paradise
So far away
Clear to see, yet far beyond my reach...
