Dreaming of 4000 - Electric Light Orchestra

Saviour of the night came slowly on the silent river

And the lord of life came following, his sins to be forgiven

While the world sat back and laughed away the hours

Till the dawning of the daybreak.

I heard them laugh, I heard them cry

I saw them praying to the sky

I heard the wind howl in the trees

Down there on bended knee

And I see the light

But I know I must be dreaming.

Feel the soul, quiet emotion

Sail on by, helpless devotion

If that's how it feels, it better be real.

Take care of your, woman

Or you'll never ever see the light

Take heed of the warnin'

Or you know, it's gonna be too late

Too late

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late, too late.

Here, there, everywhere

They keep on movin' without fear

They look me up, they look me down

They press my body to the ground

But I see the light, see the light it's comin' shinin'.

And on a summer's day

When thoughts are drifting far away

And life is good and real to see

My world is saved and I am free

But in the night

Still I know I must be dreaming.

Feel the soul, quiet emotion

Sail on by, helpless devotion

If that's how it feels, it better be real.

Take care of your, woman

Or you'll never ever see the light

Take heed of the warnin'

Or you know, it's gonna be too late

Too late, ah, oh

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late

It's too late, it's too late, it's too late, it's too late.
