Been running away so long from the day
Into the strange night of stone to fade away
As the light is gently bleeding out of my soul
Penetrating the evening as i ride on this endless road
But you can't turn back the time
It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Dawn been waiting for you so long little bird of prey
To fly me higher to the brighter day
Where the lizard lingers long under the sun
Forgetting the night darkest july paris '71
But you can't turn back the time
It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Into the strange night of stone to fade away
As the light is gently bleeding out of my soul
Penetrating the evening as i ride on this endless road
But you can't turn back the time
It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Dawn been waiting for you so long little bird of prey
To fly me higher to the brighter day
Where the lizard lingers long under the sun
Forgetting the night darkest july paris '71
But you can't turn back the time
It always gonna wait on the line
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn
Some may wish never to be born
Wasting the dawn
Like a rose growing from the christ's thorn
Wasting the dawn

"Where the lizard lingers long under the sun
Forgetting the night darkest july paris '71 "
Lizard = Jim aka "The Liazrd King", "darkest july paris '71" Jim died in Paris in 1971.
This was the first 69 Eyes song I ever listened to (followed by Starshine) I love it to pieces, it got me addicted to one of the best bands in the world.
