after all is said and done 
the night has won 
watch the stars disappear 
they burn out quietly 

and in the sky, we will know 
the sun will rise 
no, i won't look away 
i won't deny my soul 

in the light of the sun 
the day has come 
watch our lives drift away 
they burn out quietly 

but in our minds, we will know 
that it was real 
no, i won't let it go 
i won't deny my hope 

yeah, it arrives 
hanging low, in the sky 
dawn, wake me up 
but let me dream, before i die!
