Listen & view Pain of Salvation - Plains Of Dawn lyrics & tabs

"I'm here now, by your side"
Sheltered from the cold
A soldier guards a boy.
Clocks are cutting as times pass by their pain
(Bringing release through the book on his knees)
Keep trying, keep trying, keep dying inside
Hush now little child
It's time to say goodnight
Find rest in my lullaby this night
(Blind figures controlling his life)
Keep falling, keep falling, keep falling down now
Have faith my son
Reach for my hand and I'll walk with you
'till the sun goes down
Follow me now
We will meet again in your land
Now I'll lead you home
Opening stillness
Reaching through illness
they walk in the nightmist
"Now we meet again
I'm so close now"
(Again we laugh)
Where shallow waters reach
For unknown mystic shores
They gaze at the horizon and smile
"Behold my son
reach for the vision that fills your mind
Just let go and run
Follow the path that was meant for you
Long ago (Behold my son)
And cross the plains of dawn"
Wordless questions
Tearful confessions
(They meet at last now)
When it is time to go separate ways
(Fading pages)
They have touched through ages
Remember me my son
It's time to say goodbye
Goodbye
I'l free you from your prison
Now go (Keep running) [Winning a war]
You're free now (Keep running) [Made him lose]
The wave meets the shore (Keep running home kid) [Evermore]
"Farewell my son
The tubes that were straining you
To a death within life are gone
Wait for us
I and your mother will cherish you my son
I cry as I'm watching you run across plains of dawn
Plains of dawn"
And so through that evening
A soldier is leaving
His son once again and
A war has been lost...
Forlorn he is reeling,
Unmendably kneeling.
But fate leaves no choice now
He must close the book
