On the Pier Lyrics

Mournful day
The day when you sailed away
To the accompaniment of the rain.
All that day
I stood on the pier
Looking into the distance once again.
When the ship
Dissolved in the fog
I had to recognized I was alone
All that day
I stood on the pier
Catching tears of angels crying.

From night to night I fell into a reverie
- Hiding from reality dreaming her life away.
From day to day oblivion relieves my misery
- Wishing to make up for lost time, to bring him back again.
Late at night I had a dream
It soothed my pain and looked so real.
I dreamed that you were here.
Heartened me
Till the dawn you stayed beside
Looked at me, smiled tenderly
Disappeared with touch of light
Suddenly

I don't know what's happening with me.
I live the dream easing my pain.
I cannot change sober reality
I live the hope we'll meet again.
Insanity's still beyond the sight.
But I can feel it will be here tonight.

I know I am a mere shadow of my former self.
I wish to be a master of my delicate health.

I ran through the night from my nightmares
Ran to the docks seeking shelter.
With what is left of my feeble strength.

I saw your ship in the haven
Saw a lonely man standing on the pier
He turned his face on me, familiar face.
