bright eyes

is it a kind of a dream

floating out on the tide

following the river of death downstream

oh is it a dream?

there's a fog along the horizon

a strange glow in the sky

and nobody seems to know where it goes

and what does it mean?

oh is it a dream?

bright eyes

burning like fire

bright eyes

how can you close and fail?

how can the light that burned so brightly

suddenly burn so pale?

bright eyes

is it a kind of a shadow

reaching into the night

wandering over the hills unseen

oh is it a dream?

there's a high wind in the trees

a cold sound in the air

and nobody ever knows where you go

and where do you start?

oh into the dark
