Dead Can Dance Lyrics

Album: Toward the Within

American Dreaming Lyrics

In the hour of darkness

 when our worlds collide

 assailed by madness

 that has plagued our lives,

 On the point of departure

 on the eve of despair

 the recourse to reason

 seems to make no sense at all!

 Refrain:

 The light of hope

 shines in your eyes.

 Dementia has gone

 purged from inside.

 Throughout our wand'rings

 in a land of lies

 we fell from God's grace

 into a sea of storms.

 In the self-relevation

 celebration of love

 these bold four virtues

 we seem to've left behind.

 Refrain

 Refrain

 Lay bare your heart

 induce the will of love

 to restore what little faith

 that you may have lost.

 As morning brings re-birth

 a new day will dawn

 to ease our troubled minds.

 Turn away on your side

 and dream of days to come...
