lyrics

Out in the night
In the somber mist

Steal away
The thoughts you missed

Let em in
out from the cold
Bring em back into the fold

Dreams are your own
Dreams can come true
A red lantern will bring you light
In the foggy depths
Of a dim night

And as your memories flood you
Let em be the ones that soothe
All your life, you've waited for this
The final embrace of death's kiss

Dreaming of your home
Dream up something new
A red lantern will be your light
Thru the foggy depths
of a dim night

Red lanterns will light your way
And you'll see your dreams in the breaking day

(instrumental)

A red lantern will be your light
Thru the foggy depths
of a dim night

Thru the foggy depths
of a dim night

Editor's note: The title for this one comes from an unfinished Laura Nyro album. She was going to record it in the early '70s but she semi-retired. This track wasn't originally on the 2015 release of "One" but I included it here to replace "Bleeding Rose," since that song sucks.
