"The Sphinx" lyrics

"The Sphinx"

The hours since I saw you last
Have left me in an unknown past
They do not seem to leave me
They seem to join me on the road
Or even when I take a boat

A light, insanely bright, is standing
A fainting force, my loneliness remains attending

The hours since I saw you last
Have left me in an unknown past
They do not seem to leave me
They seem to join me on the road
Or even when I take a boat

A light, insanely bright, is standing
A fainting force, my loneliness remains attending
