Lyrics

Verse I

Though a vision
I cannot stare too long
I might see myself with you
You would lead me
So far from my home
Even to a land of ruin

Chorus I

How many fell before?
How can I hope to
Hold fast
Hold fast and strong
Just to stand
Alone on that shore
While the world sings along
To your siren song

Verse II

I cannot hear you now
My hands can?t hold the wheel
I?m turning, turning from you now
Soon I?ll forget to feel

Chorus II

How many fell before?
How can I hope to
Hold fast
Hold fast and strong
Just to stand
Alone on that shore
While the world sings along
To your siren song
