Shut the gates at sunset
After that you can't get out,
You can see the bigger picture,
Find out what it’s all about.
You're open to the skyline,
You won't want to go back home,
In a garden full of angels
You will never be alone.
But, oh, the road is long,
The stones that you are walking on
Have gone.
With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive,
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive.
And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide,
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride.
If you close the door to your house
Don't let anybody in,
It's a room that's full of nothing
All that underneath your skin,
Face against the window
You can't watch it fade to grey,
And you'll never catch the fickle wind
If you choose to stay.
But, oh, the road is long,
The stones that you are walking on
Have gone
With the moonlight to guide you
Feel the joy of being alive,
The day that you stop running
Is the day that you arrive.
And the night that you got locked in
Was the time to decide
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride.
Stop chasing shadows
Just enjoy the ride.
