i remember the times when I was a child
and the world was full of grace
the wind would whisper of miracles
and a secret magic place
but the sun went down and the first night fell
like a shadow upon my life
and though all the colours slowly turned to grey
i never lost my faith
in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that guides me home
to the spirit of the dawn
for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn
and here I'm wandering through a city of sin
with the creatures of the night
and we shared the suffering and the tears
in this neverending fight
and in a world of broken promises
with a sky that's cracked
ripped and torn
we'll die just to be reborn
in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that calls me home
to the spirit of the dawn
for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn
and I will never lose my faith
in the truth behind my prayers
i keep searching for the desert rain
'cause I know that it will wash away my pain
and the world was full of grace
the wind would whisper of miracles
and a secret magic place
but the sun went down and the first night fell
like a shadow upon my life
and though all the colours slowly turned to grey
i never lost my faith
in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that guides me home
to the spirit of the dawn
for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn
and here I'm wandering through a city of sin
with the creatures of the night
and we shared the suffering and the tears
in this neverending fight
and in a world of broken promises
with a sky that's cracked
ripped and torn
we'll die just to be reborn
in the spirit of the dawn
in the twilight of your soul
there's a voice that calls me home
to the spirit of the dawn
for all the pain in my heart
all the bruises and scars
i'll become the one I was
in the spirit of the dawn
and I will never lose my faith
in the truth behind my prayers
i keep searching for the desert rain
'cause I know that it will wash away my pain
