It's like waking without sleeping

Out of shadows into light

It's like sleeping without dreaming

In the valley of the night

O my sister O my sister

I won't ask you not cry

O my brother O my brother

I won't ask you not to lie

How long how long

How long how long

In the cold cruel light of morning

You will come to take my hand

You will ask me to remember

Where I'm going

Where I've been

How long how long

How long how long

How long how long

How long how long

Blue blue the skies

Before the summer storm

You say we'll be all right

Who's asking

Blue blue your eyes

Inside the perfect storm

You say we'll be all right

Who's asking

All right

Who's asking

Who's asking

Who's asking

How long how long

Who's asking

How long how long

Who's asking

How long how long

How long how long
