"Illumination" lyrics

"Illumination"

I close my eyes - but sleep won't come
You're in my waking dreams
It's a feeling right inside of me
'til you're in my arms again

The prayer I ask - is where I'm going to
Without your undying love
I'm as worthless as a cold, cold sun
That shines for no-one - at all

How many time - must I return
From distant oceans - just to learn
That with your song
Illumination comes

I close my eyes
And I hear no-one
I'm in a moving film
It's balck and white
And beautiful
And it has no end to write...
