Dead Of Night Lyrics

Dead of Night (Hey Marseilles)

I've been walking in the dead of night
Looking down, looking right
If the morning's red, then I'll be alright
I've been sailing on a dozen seas
Searching for that elusive breeze
If my raft won't sink, I'll have some time to think

I am sailing in winter
We are slowing down
We are going down
Ocean waves are to die for
Endless blue and gray
Endless

Lines we trace of a thousand ends
We count the ways we can't begin
And stay in our homes, remain on our own
The lie everyone says you should believe
Is that the map you draw shows the life you'll lead
Stay the course, and that world will be yours

I will climb to a new ridge
Where the light is low
And the lake below
Calls my name to jump off it
Endless blue and gray
Endless

I've been walking in the dead of night
Looking down, looking right
If the morning's red, then I'll be alright
I've been sailing on a dozen seas
Searching for that elusive breeze
If my raft does sink, I'll have some time to think
