[Verse]
The darkness fills the sky,
Where once the summer sun did shine,
Where lighter shades of blue were true,
And the heavens they were mine,
Now they are gone and now I seem to realise,
That a storm has entered o'er my paradise.
[Chorus]
And it stopped the golden sunlight coming through my door,
And the daybreak never comes just like it did before,
Just like it did before.
[Verse]
Through the sleepy hours at night,
This shady figure fills my door,
And casts its magic spell to swell,
The memories of my mind,
Don't stop me now, I'm the man that on the moon did walk,
Don't stop me now, I'm the Jack that climbed the beanstalk.
[Chorus]
And it stopped the golden sunlight coming through my door,
And the daybreak never comes just like it did before,
Just like it did before.
[Verse]
I spoke to it sometimes,
And then it would speak back to me,
Perhaps now that it's me, you see,
I'm dreaming I am me,
Don't stop me now, I'm a winner in the Olympic Games,
Don't stop me now, I'm the circus man that jumps through flames.
[Chorus]
And it stopped the golden sunlight coming through my door,
And the daybreak never comes just like it did before,
Just like it did before.
[Verse]
The hidden drums of silence,
Seemed to captivate my busy mind,
And spoke to me somehow to show,
What world was really mine,
Then I awake and find my old familiar things upon the shelf,
My watch and tie and signet ring.
