Fortune tainted with sighs this painted pantomime
A pallet of pale and grey the colours that paint my day
Reality intrudes invades my every mood
Turns every action round shapes my every sound

And high above the clouds tonight
My hopes and dreams search out the light
That filters down into my sleep
Refreshes strong quenches deep

And should they fail me in their task
For dreams can never last
And I fall from this lofty view
At least I'll know I'll fall to you

Complacency illudes illusions of the truth
Imagine and rely on images of eye

And high above the stars tonight
My hopes and dreams move rocket-like
To share their light into my sleep
Refreshes strong quenches deep

And should they lose their way tonight
Should this sleep seem nightmare-like
And I find there's nothing I can do
You're my only chance of pulling through
Should they fail me in their task
For dreams can never last
And I fall from this lofty view
At least I know I'll fall to you
