Thunder Night

I hear thunder in the distance
   Across this frozen night
Blinding light from lightning strikes
   Exploding in my soul

One night, this night I see
   The eyes that used to be

Blue paradise to me

Above, the heavens do unfold
   Serenity abides
Winged angels soar in ecstasy
   Among my dreams

One night, this night I see
   The eyes that used to be

Blue paradise to me

There is magic in the heart that beats
   Across this frozen night
A magic so divine, and yet
   So cold, so long ago

One night, this night I see
   The eyes that used to be

Blue paradise to me
Blue paradise to me
