[Verse] The sun sets as The past gives way to the night And the period of searching and wondering begins The objective hidden in the cloud of the heart [pre-chorus] Constantly searching for the answer As the isolation of the past sets in And the solitude gives way to quiet thought and reflection And the wandering leads to thoughts and decisions That both frighten and embolden [Chorus] And the days go on What the future brings no one knows And the night fades away As the past gives way to the present [Verse] Still the thoughts of regret nip at the heels But with each step they fade like the past And as the uncertainty looms The wayward spirit knows That the days go on [Bridge] What the future brings no one knows And the night fades away As the past gives way to the present The future may frighten But it is being scared of change Is better than than the cowardice of the past And standing at the gates of uncertainty The first step is taken [Chorus] And the days go on What the future brings no one knows And the night fades away As the past gives way to the present
