Morning comes too early,
and nighttime falls too late.

And sometimes all I want to do is wait.

The shadow I've been hiding in has fled from me today.
C7M D/2 D(1) D6 Em7
I know it's easier to walk away than look in in the eye.
Am G/2 C/2
And I will raise a shelter to the sky.
Am G/2 C/2
And here beneath this star tonight I'll lie.
Am G/2 C/2 Dsus4(2)
She will slowly yield the light as I awaken from the longest
night.

Dreams are shaking set sirens waking up
tired eyes. With the
light the memories all rush into his
head.
By a candle stands a mirror of his heart and soul she dances. She was
dancing through the night above his bed. And walking to the
window he throws the shutters out against the wall.
And from an ivory tower
hears her call "let light surround you".
(keyboard/guitar duet)
It's been a long long time he's had a
while to think it over.
But in the end he only sees the change, light to dark
dark to light, light to dark, dark to light.
Heaven must be more than this when angels waken with a kiss.
Sacred hearts won't take the pain. But mine will never be the same.
He stands before the window, his shadow slowly fading from the wall.

Solo: Requires a single slap-back delay of ~200-300 ms. My timing isn't
good enough to get it sounding right, or indeed work out exactly
what is being played. What's below is a rough idea of what I think
is going on. To confuse matters even further it sounds as though
there are regular pull-offs onto the open G. Knowing what John
Petrucci is capable of, he probably didn't even use a delay !
Once lost but I was found. When I heard the stained glass shatter all a -
round me. I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill.
But I will hold this one on high above me still.
She whispers words to clear my mind, I once could see but now at last I'm
blind.

I know it's easier to walk away, than look it in the eye.
Am G/2 C/2
But I have given all that I could take.
Am G/2 C/2
And now I've only habits left to break.
Am G/2 C/2 Dsus4(2) G(1)
Tonight I'll still be lying here, surrounded in all the light.
