[Intro]
[Verse]
Surprises come out of the blue
Perchance the colour of heaven
A cooling heart knew not the dew
From the fire of first impression
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Verse]
Words can form a chain of flowers
To link a new-found petalled place
Without walls their sacred bower
To harmonise each face-to-face
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Verse]
And when the distances did close
Upon the years of waiting long
Our nearness was the measure most
Each bonding body soft and strong
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Break]
[Verse]
The trials and torments do persist
The timeless human price of strife
But love is rare that forms the grist
To mill fine flour our bread of life
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Verse]
Eternity is the space unseen
The sound unheard - the feeling fleet
But souls forever sip the stream
Since spirit Love first made them meet
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Verse]
Surprises come out of the blue
Perchance the colour of heaven
A cooling heart knew not the dew
From the fire of first impression
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Chorus]
And in the quiet of the dawn
Ten years on as I watch her sleep
Paradise broken by a canine yawn
Cannot awake this dream so deep
[Outro]
