I May Not Awaken

When the warmth of the day becomes the night

Who could sleep beneath a strange moonlight?

No guiding star

So far from homeWalked the way o' promise to find but snow

Throughout, the voice of the winds brings nothing more

Than low echoes

So far from homeEven 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 allNo rains could weep as I have wept

To know a simple dream will not be kept

I am a child

So far from home
