[Verse 1]
When the warmth of the day becomes the night
Who could sleep beneath a strange moonlight?
No guiding star
So far from home

[Verse 2]
Walked the way of promise to find but snow
Throughout, the voice of the winds brings nothing more
Than low echoes
So far from home

[Bridge]
Even from a child, a wish is not enough
For me, for me the sky may fall
And even from a child, a dream is not enough
Could be, could be the sky may fall
Could be, could be the night ends all

[Verse 3]
No rains could weep as I have wept
To know a simple dream will not be kept
I am a child
So far from home

[Outro]
One by one the sky falls
I may not awaken
