There's a high wind in the trees
And nobody seems to know where it goes
Wandering over the hills unseen
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes
Is it a kind of a shadow?
There's a fog along the horizon
How can the light that burned so brightly
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale? Bright eyes
Oh is it a dream?
A cold sound in the air
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
And nobody ever knows when you go
Oh is it a dream?
Following the river of death downstream
And where do you start? Oh into the dark
Bright eyes, burning like fire
A strange glow in the sky
How can the light that burned so brightly
Bright eyes, how can you close and fail?
Bright eyes, burning like fire
And what does it mean? Oh is it a dream?
Reaching into the night
Bright eyes, burning like fire
