[Verse 1]
In my room, lying on my bed
The air is heavy, hot, and still
Lady luck has left me or I'm under the wings of destiny
Which is true, I'll wait for time to tell
[Chorus]
I dream the fog surrounds me
I dream this on a restless summer night
It cloaks, it's all around me
And when it's there I feel that all is right
You see this fog, it frees me
When no one else can see me I can hide
I lie awake and dream that the fog rolls in
Rolls in through the night
[Verse 2]
My mind roams 'cross oceans and years
The time being's become a dead end
Last time I rolled the dice there flashed the eyes of a snake
So I sit and wait for my turn to come 'round again
[Chorus]
I dream the fog surrounds me
I dream this on a restless summer night
It cloaks, it's all around me
And when it's there I feel that all is right
You see this fog, it frees me
When no one else can see me I can hide
I lie awake and dream that the fog rolls in
Rolls in through the night
[Outro]
In the chill of its caress everything is alright
And in the morning sun my dreams burn away
They've vanished with the night
