"Cheyenne" lyrics - JOHN ARCH

I've been living in the past
Trying to live without you
I can feel your presence here
But I just can't touch you anymore
Memories are all I have
And your pictures fades from the light of another day
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
Can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away

I've been looking to the west
Where the silent man can hear the harmony
Of the children's song and its sweet refrain
I just can't hear it anymore
Memories are all I have
Of the sun and stars dancing endlessly
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
Can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away
I am, Cheyenne
I am the sky, the wind, the rain
In my dreams, my friend
I can see you again

Look behind my footprints in the sand
This moment I stop to wonder
Why I long for yesterday
Tomorrow pulls me under
All the while I wallow in the mire
The moment just passed me by
Sunrise, will you grace my eyes
Bless my soul, make me whole again

The voice of reason guides me home
To the summit in the sky
Where amber waves and endless days
Celestial spheres catch our gaze
Desperate cries prayers unanswered
Angry are the faithless
Who are they who left us here?
The anthem loud the question is so very clear
We stare into the stratosphere all alone
All alone, all alone

I am the salt of this lonely satellite
A grain of sand the tide has washed ashore
All I am
All I am, nothing more
You quote from the book of the names
The words don't mean a thing anymore
Forever more
My mind has the will of the wind

The cross you bear
The martyrs clever disguise
And my testament is seen with my own eyes
You await angels of mercy
Descend down through the sky
I live among the living
I'll live till I die

I found a piece of mystical broken heart
It's longing of the child left behind
Till the end of all time
That child had the will of the wind
We've come to a place where the road divides
And there's no turning back, not this time
Are we mortal men or are you divine?

The cross you bear
The martyrs clever disguise
And my testament is seen with my own eyes
You await angels of mercy
Descend down through the sky
I live among the living
I'd rather dance with the wolves
Than stare at the sun
Hear my confession
I am alive

And if it gives you solace
Then pray for me in silence
Just please save your pity
And seek redemption for yourself
And if from grace I've fallen
Won't you forgive me and make me whole again

I hear the voice of reason
They speak to me in silence
I feel I can't deny you
I will deny your likeness of man
I see Cheyenne is mourning
She bleeds for all humanity

And if it gives you solace
Then pray for me in silence
Just please save your pity
And seek your redemption
You can save it all for yourself
And if from grace I've fallen
Won't you forgive me and make me whole again

I've been living in the past
Trying to live without you
I can feel your presence here
But I just can't touch you anymore
Memories are all I have
And your pictures fades from the light of another day
Can you hear me call
Call your name

Cheyenne, I am
I am so far away
Can you feel our dreams
They are slipping away
I am, Cheyenne
I am the sky, the wind, the rain
In my dreams, my friend
I can see you again
My friend
Cheyenne
This is the end.
