Take flight as falling rain surround us
Turn back the hands of time to save us
Too late to scream your name I'm bleeding
Now it's just your commands I'm heeding
(that's right)
Mother Mercy comin' thru tonight
While I'm dreamin', so deceivin'
Touch down in moonlight
I'm still awake, still awake
CHORUS:
My sole fear within a broken sleep
Don't know why you keep it comin'
Your soul here I'll pray to keep
I'm on the line can't keep from runnin'
Just one tear upon the water deep
Don't know how your world keeps turnin'
Lie so near within a broken sleep
Give me a sign and I'll come runnin'
These notions could not help but sever
Tonight I'm fast asleep forever
Too late for tears so I'll drift home now
Still drifting back to your arms somehow, No!
Mother Mercy comin' thru tonight
While I'm dreamin', so deceivin'
Touch down in moonlight
I'm still awake, still awake
CHORUS
I'll come runnin'!
