When Songtext / Lyric

When

I'm drifting in my dream

I love you



When

I wake and nothing's what it seemed

I love you



When

The final midnight's poised to stroke

I love you



And all of the looking glasses broke



When

All of the aces have been drawn

I love you



When

Your king is cornered by my pawn

I love you



When

You are asleep and so defenceless

I love you






When

This wicked world

Has turned against us



Even though

We didn't kiss goodbye

I love you



When

There are no tears in me to cry

I love you



When

The willow's weeping

With desire



When

The furthest cold and distant planet

Catches fire, fire



Tear at the sky

Haunted by windows

Those are the eyes

Always searching never seeing souls are sailing

Slowly, lonely



When

They've got our names down on a list

I love you



When

I am recalling our first kiss

I love you



When

You are distracted and remote

I love you



When

There is no voice

Left in my throat



When

The rains are spilling from the sky

I love you



When

The thirsty riverbeds are dry

I love you



Though

You never asked me to be yours



When the wild and restless waves are crashing

On the shore



Tear out the sky

Crowded by windows

Those are the eyes

Always searching never seeing souls are sailing

Slowly, lonely



When

You are a million miles away

I love you



When

We've dropped our lines from this mad play

I love you



Though

Our longest battle is not won

I love you



When

The stage is dark

The people gone



When

My soul no longer

Takes its form



And

You hear me singing

In the storm
