There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade,
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow,
In a world gone lean.
Sometimes there's things a man cannot know,
Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow,
There's no place to run and no gasoline,
Engine won't turn,
And the train won't leave.
Engines won't turn, and the train won't leave.
I will stay with you tonight,
Hold you close ‘til the morning light,
In the morning watch a new day rise,
We'll do whatever just to stay alive,
We'll do whatever just to stay alive.
Well, the way I feel is the way I write,
It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies,
There is a truth and it's on our side,
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes,
Look into the sun as the new days rise.
And I will wait for you tonight,
You're here forever and you're by my side,
I've been waiting all my life
To feel your heart as it's keeping time,
We'll do whatever just to stay alive.
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes.
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes.
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes.
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes.
Look into the sun as the new days rise,
There's a rhythm in rush these days
Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade,
Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams
In a world gone shallow,
In a world gone lean.
But there is a truth and it's on our side,
Dawn is coming, open your eyes,
Look into the sun as a new days rise.
