Lyrics

  1. Why must I live in dreams
    Of the days that I used to know?
    Why can’t I find real peace of mind
    And return to the long ago?

Chorus
Where the blue of the night meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me
And the gold of her hair crowns the blue of her eyes
Like a halo, tenderly
If only I could see her
Oh, how happy I would be
Where the blue of the night meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me

  1. Mem’ries come back to me
    Of a sunset behind a hill
    Each new born day takes me away
    To the place that I long for still
