It takes time to ease the pain
In spite of what some might claim
'Cause from what I've seen
In my bespoke dreams
And from what's been said
In the books I've read
There awaits a prize for you to claim
When the morning comes
You're in sorrow
Midnight on the bay
Meet up in the cemetery
Moonlight on your eyes
The sun shines in for a nice surprise
Don’t waste time on what caused the pain
Get on your feet again
It will hold you down and will push you around
Just set it free, it’s what’s meant to be
There is a stake for you to claim
When the morning comes
You’re in sorrow
Moonlight on the bay
Moving with the symmetry
Midnight on your eyes
Staying in for a nice surprise
It takes time to ease the pain
In spite of what some might claim
You will settle down again
There is a lion that you will tame
When the morning comes
