REPEAT
Lryics:
Verse (1)
Look out at the darkness and you will see
Just call my name and I'll be there
You can not touch me, you would not dare
I am the chill that's in the air
Chorus
And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble at the end of the day
Ah ha ha
Verse (2)
Dark rivers are flowing,
Back into the past
You are a fish for which I cast
And what of the future,
What is to be,
As the river flow into the sea
Chorus
And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble at the end of the day
Verse (3)
Do not take for granted
Powers out there
Don't step into the demons lair
Time is an illusion
Rising from time
Steep is the mountain which we climb
Chorus
And I try to get through to you
In my own special way
As the barriers crumble at the end of the day
