A lonely soul wanders through a midnight town scape longing for his beloved, suffering love unrequited. Both apart, so untouchable and unreachable, are within earshot of the bells of the same nearby tower.

Original Lyrics Steve Hewitt

Lyrics are drawn from a poetic work originally by Steve Hewitt of OX3 and explore being both so close and so far from those we love. Perhaps this is a physical or emotional separation, or perhaps one of class or social station.

I walk through these nights of cloud and steam,
moonbeams scatter paper dreams
Down silent streets chilled starlight blows,
All through the night this haunted darkness grows.
How many nights have I walked alone?
Down unlit shadows of my past
Sailed through starlit streets adrift,
dressed in dusk and monochrome?
Late at night, high on the wind,
I catch a glimpse of your embrace.
Though it’s been years and years my love,
I'm haunted by your face.
I float through these nights of stars and wind.
Sirens echo, streetlights shadow full moon trees.
I feel you as I live and breathe...
Late at night, high on the wind,
I catch a glimpse of your embrace.
though it’s been years and years my love,
I'm haunted by your face.
I'm haunted by you, even now.
You follow all my waking hours…
….
I'm haunted by you, I'm haunted by you
Deep in the dream I feel you pull me down,
an undertow as you dance with the moon,
hold me gently in my sleep,
shelter me but let me weep.
stars reflect like diamond skies
take the pennies from my eyes
I'm haunted by you, even now.
You follow all my waking hours. br>
Late at night, high on the wind,
I catch a glimpse of your embrace.
though it’s been years and years my love,
I'm haunted by your face.
I'm haunted by you, I'm haunted by you!
