lyrics

No Ground - Steve Merlin 1995/2003/2008

The night is over, the night is over
The night is over now, the night is over now

We stand at the sea-side awake, I shiver and turn ... to you
Watch my memories blow away, as I sit down the sand turns blue

And like never before, a wall would tumble and fall away
Thogh everything falls apart, I will keep every stone for you

We’ll ride on in the sunlight, looking at the tides
Trying to understand why the speechless people hide

Didn’t you know, only time can grow the loved ones
Didn’t you know, the place is never here
I could have tried to bury those things between us
Never again would we speak... and ever hide

How can we stand wide awake, and let our memories blow away
Though the wind will pull them so hard out, you know there’s always the sun again

No reason to ride in the skies, on the thin air, on the floating clouds
When you can always feel it, with all of your body, while you’re still on the ground

When the night is over, when the night is over
When the night is over, the night is over
Now the night is over
