Once Blue

In the strange light
Of someone else
The air is darkening
There's no one here
Who can help me see myself

In the once blue
Of better days
A sudden emptiness
I close my eyes
Hoping I might fade away

And if I do
I'll come to you
As if I'm not too late
For all we are
And all we were

Nights of wonder
Lying under dying stars
Love exactly as it seems
Someone true
To show you who you really are
And the dream you meant to dream

At the still point
Of wild days
There lies a wilderness
Inside of me
Everywhere
But there you are

In the long night
Where you are safe
The ghost of childhood
Is wide awake
Telling you to close your eyes

And if you do
I'll come to you
As if I'm not too late
For all we are
And all we were

Nights of wonder
Lying under dying stars
Love exactly as it seems
Someone true
To show you who you really are
And the dream you meant to dream

And if you knew
I'd come to you

Nights of wonder
Lying under dying stars
Love exactly as it seems
Someone true
To show you who you really are
And the dreams you're meant to dream
