A Fine Day to Exit - 2001

Temporary Peace

Deep inside the silence
staring out upon the sea
the waves are washing over
half forgotten memory
deep within the moment
laughter floats upon the breeze
rising and falling dying down within me

And I swear I never knew,I never knew
how it could be
and all this time all I had inside
was what I couldn't see
I swear I never knew, I never knew
how it couldn't be
all the waves are washing over
all that hurts inside of me

Beyond this beautiful horizon
lies a dream for you and I
this tranquil scene is still unbroken
by the rumours in the sky
but there's a storm closing in
voices crying on the wind
the serenade is growing
colder breaks my soul
that tries to sing
and there's so many, many thoughts
when I try to go to sleep
but with you I start to feel
a sort of temporary peace
there's a drift in and out...
