the beating of wings

Deep Purple

I sit alone
In the night
And I know
It s gonna be alright
So when the morning hurries shadows away
From the sky
And then the rays keep my demons at bay

I sit and wait
In the dark
And I say to me
Here comes the best part
It s a new day
It s a new day

Then I follow the light and the heavenly voice
Of my angel sings
Now I m feeling the dawn of her pulse
And I rise to the beating of wings

I m looking up
At the nightscape
As the stars
Begin to fade
It takes only one
Only one
To put all the rest
In the shade
Only one
Only one

I ll be wondering where you ll be sleeping tonight
Way out there in Saturnian rings
I ll be losing my way once again
Till I rise to the beating of wings

In the candle s flickering light
I can see so clearly
All the dreams that might come true
And if not true, then nearly

Then I follow the light and the heavenly voice
As my angel sings
Now I m feeling the dawn of her pulse
And I rise to the beating of wings

I ll be wondering where you ll be sleeping tonight
Way out there in Saturnian rings
I ll be losing my way once again
Till I rise to the beating of wings
