Once

Sweet song performed by sunrise
Where the blue born once now dies
Beyond eerie shores blooming day hides

I dance in the dark
Kissing the night
All starlit paths across pale face of silver moon
White memory once dear to you
Once one word was the whole world
Once, but nevermore

Sweet lure dwells in a lullaby
Dancing and singing above merry dream high
Beyond fantasy awe all the stars hide

I see fading dusk upon the horizon
Where both the sun or moon is rising

I walk under silver-glittery sky
Bathing in pure starlight

The snow on my palm melts down
Pouring with waterfalls of dreams
Cascading reflections of fading autumn

Sweet memory dawns upon white shore
Cleansing all I once adored

Sweet song dwelt in ice
Where dawn fades in sundown’s eyes
Beyond eerie shores blooming days hides

Above eerie shores blooming days will rise
Glowing with silver-entwined-with-gold starlight
