Buffalo Sun – In Wake Of Dreams That Die (Where Lovers Say Goodbye) lyrics

On the inside looking out
I find a one-way paneled frame
Reflecting what I used to be
And never will again
I cry too
You don’t know my name
Losing faces are all the same
Though you once held great acclaim
For the one who stands here crying so ashamed
In the temples of our great empire
I was a noble King
Who knelt beside his Royal Bride
As poets cried to sing
I cried too
You a song sung blue
Feeling right I Left no clue
While looking up at you
Our empire tumbled down and we were through

And I’m never going to see the sunrise in your eyes
Only setting suns that fade away and say goodbye
In Wake Of Dreams That Die
Where Lovers say Goodbye

Going out I find my way into
The council of the Lord
A Viking clenching fists of rage
And swearing by the sword
He dies as I
Into a dream
Standing proud and noble be
I rise up off my knees
To the shadows of our world where no one sees

And I’m never going to see the sunrise in your eyes
Only setting suns that fade away and say goodbye
In Wake Of Dreams That Die
Where Lovers say Goodbye

And after all the rains have wet my lips are dry as desert sands
One last tear will disappear into my empty hands
And through my fingers slip a broken man

Rising up into the world
I slipped and fell down on my face
Forgetting to remember that
Mistakes can’t be erased
As I am
Reaching out above
My severed hands feel love
And touching yesterday
Fading soft like golden leaves you drift away
Once upon a time our love would rhyme
Like a poems flowing lines
Until a verse had been rehearsed
With lyrics out of time
I sing to you
A lullaby
Oh so soft, you did not cry
Instead you spread your wings to f1y
To a world unknown – Where Lovers Say Goodbye

And I’m never going to see the sunrise in your eyes
Only setting suns that fade away and say goodbye
In Wake Of Dreams That Die
Where Lovers say Goodbye

Going out I find my way into
The council of the Lord
A Viking clenching fists of rage
And swearing by the sword
He dies as I
Into a dream
Standing proud and noble be
I rise up off my knees
To the shadows of our world where no one sees

And I’m never going to see the sunrise in your eyes
Only setting suns that fade away and say goodbye
In Wake Of Dreams That Die
Where Lovers say Goodbye

And after all the rains have wet my lips are dry as desert sands
One last tear will disappear into my empty hands
And through my fingers slip a broken man
