Can you see the moonlit skies
Dancing on the horizon?
Where eagles used to fly,
So long ago
I remember you and I
We were reaching out for something
I tried to be your wings and fly away.
And you stand on your own
Holding your hands to the sky, oh ye, ye
And all you have known
Drowning before your eyes
Take me baby
Carry me tonight
Take me to the water's edge
Take me baby, now
Burning deep inside
The calm before the storm, oh ye, ye
And when the feeling dies
In the eyes that burned so bright
oh, the calm before the storm
Is in your eyes, oh yeah
Now the years have been and gone
But I can still remember
We carved our names on the stone
When we were young
And I stand on my own
Keeping my eyes on the sun
Can the see me now
Selling my soul
Wondering what had had begun
Oh, baby
Carry me tonight
Take me to the water's edge
Take me baby, now
Burning deep inside
The calm before the storm, oh yeah
And when the feeling dies
In the eyes that burned so bright
Oh, the calm before the storm
Is over now, oh yeah
Oh, the calm before the storm
Is over now
Carry me tonight
Take me to the water's edge
Take me baby, now
Burning deep inside
The calm before the storm,
Oh baby, now, now
Carry me tonight
Take me to the water's edge
Burning deep inside
The calm before the storm
And I'll dream the dream since you asked me to
As I walk beside you now
oh, the calm before the storm
Is over now, oh yeah
the calm before the storm
Is over now
