Stealing Away
The dawn light is only
A broken beginning
And down in the courtyard
The toll bell keeps ringing
While she lies there sleeping
The secret is creeping
I should be stealing away
Now the cool morning's cut me
And I'm trying not to feel it
But if she were to wake
Don't think I could conceal it
For the minutes are hanging
And the autumn lights passing
And I should be stealing away
Oh Sweet illusion
You've fooled beggars and kings
I've danced in your moonlight
Sang to your song
But I can't keep a hold of your wings
Our empire has fallen
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Our dream has retreated
The lines we held on to
Are all but defeated
The last post's abandoned
Where love was once standing
And I should be stealing away
Oh Sweet illusion
You've fooled beggars and kings
I've danced in your moonlight
Sang to your song
But I can't keep a hold of your wings
I don't want to wait
For the moment you rise
Just to show you
That far away look in my eyes
I'll tell you no lie
I won't kiss you goodbye
I'll just be stealing away
