All: It was a long time ago

Solo 1: I have almost forgotten my dream

But it was there then

In front of me

All: Bright like a sun

Solo 1: My dream

And then the wall rose

All: Rose slowly, slowly

Solo 1: Between me and my dream

All: Rose until it touched the sky, the wall

Solo 1: Shadow, I am black

I lie down in the shadow

No longer the light of my dream before me

Above me

All: Only the thick wall, only the shadow

Solo 1: My hands

My dark hands

Break through the wall

Find my dream

Help me to shatter this darkness

To smash this night

All: To break this shadow

Into a thousand flights of sun

Solo 1: Into a thousand whirling dreams of sun.
