As the dawn is breaking
On your future my child
Is there none of your love alive?
If every door you open closes on me
I don't know if I can survive
I don't know if I can survive

Long is the road
That takes you from home
My baby, oh my darling
And sleepless are the hours
And lonely is the night
For the poor tormented soul
Who is searching for the light

This morning I opened my eyes
I knew from the silence
That something was wrong
Turning, I realized
I wanted to cry
When I knew I was alone

But where will you go?
And who will be your guide?
And which way will you turn?
The waters are so wide
'Cause I never told you
No, you'll never really know
I need you so

Now the sun is rising
On your freedom my child
Is there none of your love alive?
Every door you open closes on me
I don't know if I can survive
Knowing part of your love was lies

Long is the road
That takes you from home
My baby, oh my darling
And sleepless are the hours
And lonely is the night
For the poor tormented soul
Who is searching for the light

The moment I opened my eyes
I knew from the silence
That something was wrong
Turning, I realized
I wanted to cry
When I knew I was alone

But where will you go?
And who will be your guide?
And which way will you turn?
The water are so wide
'Cause I never told you
No, you'll never really know
I need you so
