I'm lost on an evening tide
A red ocean into a northern sky
And the deep water moves like gray ribbons on a wind
I've always seen the beauty in it
It's a slow change, it's hard to recognize it
And the myths of the modern age always darken the door
Always the door
'Cause the light it shone
We were living in the dark
Now the thrill is gone
Yeah, we couldn't find a spark
In that failing light
We were pulling at the seams
Yeah, it seemed to me
We were living in a dream
We were living in a dream
See, I don't want to let her down
It's a fear in the dark, I want to be around
See my daughter grow older in a world that still has some beauty
It's a siren on a midnight street
When no ones listening it's hard to compete
For each man's meaning is as large as the world he's living in
The world he's living in
As the light it shone
We were living in the dark
Now the thrill is gone
Yeah, we could't find a spark
In that failing light
We were pulling at the seams
Yeah, it seemed to me
We were living in a dream
We were living in a dream
We were living in the dark
Yeah, we couldn't find a spark
In that failing light
We were pulling at the seams
Yeah, it seemed to me
We were living in a dream
We were living in a
As the light it shone
We were living it the dark
Now the thrill is gone
Yeah, we could't find a spark
In that failing light
We were pulling at the seams
Yeah, it seemed to me
We were living in a dream
We were living in a dream
