In the dark it seems so easy now
If you could just remember how the problem can be solved
The sun comes up lightening the sky
But everyday is the same
Doubts return and the answers desert you
Fragments fall around you
All shot down in flames
Suddenly now you know that it can never be the same
All of the hopes and dreams and promises
You made have upped and gone
Bringing boredom out of wonder, water out of wine, oh
By the fire cheered up by the flames
Watching people on the TV
Thinking I can do the same
The sun goes down darkening the sky
Leave things undecided
Lest the thinking cause you pain
So everyday is the same
You know what to do, just how eludes you
Fragments fall around you
All shot down in flames
Suddenly now you know that it can never be the same
All of the hopes and dreams and promises
You made have upped and gone
Bringing boredom out of wonder, water out of wine, oh
Look into the glass
Can you still recall
That bundle of potential
That you were when you were young
The sun comes up brightening the sky
The sun goes down darkening the sky
So everyday is the same
Till the day when the dreaming is over
Fragments fall around you
All shot down in flames
Suddenly now you know that it can never be the same
All of the hopes and dreams and promises
You made have upped and gone
Bringing boredom out of wonder, water out of wine, oh
