Mercury Rising

Eleven days
A dozen nights
A thousand tears
And you are my shoulder
From summer's haze, on morning light
The sun is rising...just like I told you

Chorus
If you fall, I'll never let your spirit break
If you call, I'll always soothe the cries you make
If it's all I can do, I'll slowly kiss your dreams awake
You're not alone for heaven's sake
Mercury rising

From winter skies
A cold embrace -
The shadows meet
And they drag you under...
The moonlight's mine
And yours to chase -
Your star is rising
Beyond your wonder...

Chorus

You're not alone for heaven sake
Your tears run so freely
Your fears run so deeply down...
The pressure is breaking
Quicksilver awaking now...
Can you feel it rise?
Can you see it rise?
Droplets of dreams
That you touched, disappear...
There's change in the weather
And wind in your hair
And mercury's rising
Mercury's rising
Rising...
Rising...
Rising...
Mercury's rising...

Eleven days
A dozen nights
A thousand tears...
And you are my shoulder
From summer's haze, on morning light
The sun is rising...
Just like I told you
