lyrics

Lying in the dark I hear the ticking of a clock somewhere
It pierces through the black before the dawn.

I press up close beside to steal the rhythm of your breathing
While the cat dances her dreams against my palm.

A single set of headlights brings the thump of the newspaper,
And a single bird takes up its lonely song.

The room begins to lighten and I wonder how the day will break.
If sun will finally burn away the fog.
Will it burn away the fog?

Will today be the day when
I join my life again?
Will today be the day when
The sun burns off the fog.

I know the darker days when I felt very far away
From all the business of the business going on.

It's hard to play the part when you don't feel it in your heart,
And somehow all the days have gotten much too long.

But now I sense the flicker of the light within the embers
And I know the flame will start to burn on, burn on, come on!

The room begins to lighten and I see that the day will break,
And soon the sun will burn away the fog.
It will burn away the fog.

Will today be the day when
I join my life again?
Will today be the day when
The sun burns off the fog.

Yes, maybe today will be the day when
I join my life again.
Maybe today will be the day when
The sun burns off the fog.
The sun burns off the fog.
