Either way, at the break of day
The sun comes across the waters
And I'm sitting here, I'm waiting here
For a morning and two full moons gone…
Gone by, gone by, gone, by
Sunrise on the eastside, sunset on the west
I've emptied my pockets and given my best
My toes keep on dipping in waters unknown
And ripples they carry to shore
The cracks in the sidewalk which trace my path home
Leave nothing but starry nights outside alone
The minutes seem longer, the incense burn slower
And photos still on the wall
Been away… for far too long
Distance denies requests and replies to have you in my arms for another day
Chorus:
Well you may be far and time run slow
But this old clock has freed my soul
And those mixed puzzle pieces have finally found their place,
Saying, live on, and rise with the morning sun,
I'll pick you up by the railway, about half past noon
Yea carry on, smiling to the unknown song,
Singing, I'm loving that my long awaited sunrise came so soon
Upon closer inspection, I grasp the reflection
In windows and mirrors on the wall
Got nothing but smiles, she's traveled the miles
Till phone calls diminish to none
Now sitting in sand, my sunrise in hand
We're begging and pleading for more
But despite our requests, you must set in the west-
But when morning comes you'll be back again.
Well either way, at the break of day,
The sun comes across the waters
I'm sitting here, I'm waiting here
For a morning and two full moons gone…
Gone by, gone by, gone by
Been away… for far too long
Distance denies requests and replies to have you in my arms for another day
Chorus:
Well you may be far and time run slow
But this old clock has freed my soul
And those mixed puzzle pieces have finally found their place,
Saying, live on, rise with the morning sun,
I'll pick you up by the railway- about half past noon
Yea carry on, smiling to the unknown song-
Singing, I'm loving that my long awaited sunrise came so soon
Yea I'm loving that my long awaited sunrise came so soon (x3)
