Oh how I wish that time would stand still
Reverse the grains of sand
And hand me new life and new will
At the gates of gold
I free my soul
Across the raging seas into the flames
With my final breath I'll speak your name
And why must I stray down the path
Away from you
If we only knew from the start
At the gates of gold
I free my soul
Across the raging seas into the flames
With my final breath I'll speak your name, yeah
In dreams I feel your touch
But emptiness is all I clutch
My soul cannot be saved
The passage here is not paved
This is my goodbye, my farewell
Remember this embrace
As I gaze into your eyes then the skies
I free my soul
Across the raging seas into the flames
With my final breath I'll speak your name
