Sea of Madness Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Out in the street, somebody's crying
Out in the night, the fires burn
Maybe tonight, somebody's crying
Reached the point of no return

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, my eyes, they see
But I can't believe
Oh, my heart is heavy
As I turn my back and leave

[Chorus]
Like the eagle and the dove
Fly so high on wings above
When all you see can only bring you sadness
Like a river, we will flow
On towards the sea, we go
When all you do can only bring you sadness
Out on the sea of madness

[Verse 2]
Somewhere, I hear a voice that's calling
Out in the dark, there burns a dream
You got to hope when you are falling
To find the world that you have seen

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, my eyes, they see
But I can't believe
Oh, my heart is heavy
As I turn my back and leave

[Chorus]
Like the eagle and the dove
Fly so high on wings above
When all you see can only bring you sadness
Like a river, we will flow
On towards the sea, we go
When all you do can only bring you sadness
Out on the sea of madness

[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]

[Instrumental Break]
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Guitar Solo]
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]
It's madness, the sun don't shine
On the sea of madness
There ain't no wind to fill your sails
Madness, when all you see
Can only bring you sadness
On towards the sea, we go

[Verse 3]
Out in the night, somebody's crying
Out in the night, the fires burn
Maybe tonight, somebody's crying
Reached the point of no return

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, my eyes, they see
But I can't believe
Oh, my heart is heavy
As I turn my back and leave

[Chorus]
Like the eagle and the dove
Fly so high on wings above
When all you see can only bring you sadness
Like a river, we will flow
On towards the sea, we go
When all you do can only bring you sadness
Out on the sea of madness

[Outro]
Of madness, of madness
Of madness, of madness
Of madness, of madness
