Lyrics
Tracing through the maze of tears and laughter
Racing up and down the face of time
In the lives of men you are an actor
So many roles must you combine
How long, how far, how deep into disaster
Must we travel `til we see our sign?
Your candles and your sacred spells unlatch her
But she'll walk right through your dreams in a disguise
(Chorus 1)
You'll see her but at first won't recognize
Her hair is drawn across the morning skies
And everyone she's ever touched will rise
To meet her inside
To watch her ripple in the moonlit night
To meet her flaming, amber eyes
Blazing, amber eyes
Soon we'll leave behind what we have borrowed
The sea and wind can never be confined
And though we have our plans about tomorrow
Yesterday still has not been defined
Raindrops leaking through the roof and rafters
Shafts of sunlight streaming through the blinds
Tracing through the maze of tears and laughter
Blazing trails up the mountainside
(Chorus 2)
Walking through this place for the first time
Opening our feathers as we climb
Riding on the crest of the design
To meet her inside
To watch her ripple in the moonlit night
To meet her flaming amber eyes
Blazing, amber eyes
