the stars appear along the treetops
it can't be night until the sun is gone
taken from dawn
so where i'll go is just a secret
between the dark and the cold mountaintops
dusk is falling
the trail is old, but the trees are older
and as i walk, i leave the earth behind
out of my mind
so off the path my body wanders
between the dark and the cold mountaintops
i am calling
i drift along just for the journey
with only stars to tell me where i've been
how far have i gone?
like a sickness, it takes me over
between the dark and the cold mountaintops
the sun is rising
look up in awe
the sky is what i want
you've seen it all along
and my heart is
burnin' up in stars
yeah, it's really not so far
although i search, i cannot find it
an empty space within my memory
a place of my dreams
perhaps someday, i will awaken
between the dark and the cold mountaintops
where dusk is falling
