(V1)
The road ahead of me is all too long
If I only knew what was going on
The crystal ball of life tells me I've drowned
I try to run but I'm broken down

In the mirror I see I'm fading away
The feeling's slipping but I wanna stay
I try to fight but my strength is gone
I'm weak and weary and I can't go on
I can't go on

(Chorus)
Avalon, Avalon
Lest we forget
A place where men
Swim in regret
Avalon, Avalon
Is where I belong
Where souls are strong
Avalon ... Avalon

(V2)
If I could tell you what went wrong
My feet would climb to the highest of ground
And the flood that is rising on my sea
Would be overcome if you'd rescue me
Rescue Me

When each day's a battle raging on
I dream of final days in Avalon
I see my life, all the things I've done
Remembered when our two hearts
Two hearts were one .. two hearts were one

(Chorus)
Avalon, Avalon
Lest we forget
A place where men
Swim in regret
Avalon, Avalon
Is where I belong
Where souls are strong
Avalon ... Avalon

(Bridge)
Take this pain and heartbreak away
Reset the kindle for another day
And I will wander this feeling away
Into Avalon where I belong
Avalon

(V3)
With friends around me, extending their hands
Why do they slip away like hourglass sands
Oh, this sickness that I never planned
I'd set it free but the flames have been fanned
Have been fanned....have been fanned

(Chorus x2)
Avalon, Avalon
Lest we forget
A place where men
Swim in regret
Avalon, Avalon
Is where I belong
Where souls are strong
Avalon ... Avalon
