The stars dwell all alight
And golden moon is rising high
Above the gardens fair and pure
Where faithful people still endure

A song of nightingale flows
Through the velvet night to meet dawn
Just once to slip between two worlds

You see my dream
You walk my shores
Cold and lonely
As the silent wish of me
Still locked beyond a secret door

You see a dreamless memory
Coiling deep in my eyes
You walk through deepest fantasy
Washing upon my mind

Take me to this realm
So far from faceless real
Unveil to me serenity of a scene
Still dwelling within your heart
Claim this flame in my eyes as your own art

Dwell with me in this song
Redeem me into first dawn
And be with me until the end of hope

I long for you as moon and stars share their glow
Though none shall ever know
There was greater love in the whole world

You do but see the world in darkness
You do but feel it another way
I am but lost in dawning silence
I am but broken by the very day

You sink into the night
Covering day with a veil so dim
Diving deeper into twilight
I see your eyes
All dark with desire and lifelust
I dwell within every your deed

Tell me no tale of your fate
I know that sad truth
Let me ease your pain till it’s not late
Let me take it from you

You are the darkness
Devouring night
You are the silence
Whisper of firelight

I am your shadow
Your lonely spirit, dwelling by your side
Into the voids I will follow
Just to share this fear you tried to hide

One path to thread
One fate to share
You and me so different, but all the same

Years and ages I’ve been loyal to thee
Fighting forever by thine side
Where my very place ever happened to be
Among these shadows of thine night
Master of shade, Lord of cold and ice
Thou art but my greatest fear and desire
For thee I shall fall and rise
Into the darkest doom and out of ashes of fire

For thee now my oath is spoken
Take my soul like a token
Though I shall never apart, nor ever dare I
As thou art my hope to live and reason to die

This oath I speak to thee in honour and loyalty
Dwelling in place where I ever meant to be
By thine side as servant and friend till the darkest end

One last meet before it’s gone
One last night before the fall
Let us live this dawn

Final fight
Of darkness and light
One last time
In-between death and life

Let us live till dawn to see pale glimpse of sun
Upon edge of the world forever gone

Embrace me tight
As this world belongs to us
One last time

One last meet
Before it’s lost beyond the rim
One last dream
In arms so dear
Vanishing real
Just hold me near

Let me feel your warmth
One last time
Let me see this dawn
With you by my side

Hold me through this night
Till the end we will fight

Embrace me tight
Don’t let me go
Side by side
Together we will never fall

Heart knowing love will dwell in ages
Heart broken by love will turn to ice
The story old as time lives on faded pages
They still say one heart cannot be broken twice

Once
It breaks slowly
Breathing with agony
Deep within your throat you suppress long cries

Dark claws tear your soul into pieces
But none can see how life cease
Flowing away with an ever gone smile
Turning into a shadow of time

Twice
It turns into stone
Ice-covered cold
Heart of life dwells in eternal frost of all their lies

Ever walking among silent tides
Seeking warmth
Cruel world embraced that heart with cold
Shadow cascading upon once loving soul showed
That unborn hope never dies

Heart knowing love will dwell in ages
Heart broken by love will turn to ice
The story old as time lives on faded pages
They still say one heart cannot be broken twice

Light sparkles in ice eyes
Darkness showered upon silk-like hair
This feeling is stronger than time
You see it all but will you dare
To hear the story of old?
Will you try to warm the heart of cold?

Alone in his own design
He dwells
Devoted to his own sight
He spells
Sweet shadows of his heart

Searching for fires in the darkest void
Failed, ashamed in the end
If they all saw, if they cared
You wished to create and now there is only one road

Long ages of loneliness
Lost in darkness
You, lord of eternal night and cold

Upon the dawn of the world
Desire to create was too great
But did they care
Did they see it within your flaming soul

Cast away your dreams, tear your core
Let them destroy all you loved so

Caught and chained, before those who are right
You’re put on your kneels
Shame is born out of their purifying light
And your rage burns with tears

The world you see is dark and cold
Different from their gardens of bloom
Your kingdom dwells in mountains’ core
Veiled by smoke and gloom

Heart of darkness will never gain mercy from the one of light
Because they see you all wrong and you see they’re all right

Soul of ice desired for heart of flames
Both lost in bittersweet waves
He would serve you well until the end of days

The one who will see what burns within
Loyal and patient, winged by the same dream
Both of you are but the same eternity’s sin

Heart of light turned to darkness seeking the hope
Burning with desire to create and give it will long for its true soul

Somewhere in the Great Sea
There is an island of lost dream

White shore in turquoise waves
With mountains high and emerald dales
A lonely island lost in countless days

So close it was, but ever so far
Beyond the horizon
Shining bright like a star
Glow of first dawn

They tried to reach it
Though their hopes were vain
They wished to change it
Ending up in grief and pain

Guardians of those lands dwell in mercy
Though harsh is their anger
Some of fighters got lost in the sea
Though some amongst the guardians dwell
Somewhere beyond the sky rim
There is a land of lost dream

Far, forgotten realm hidden in the sea
Awaiting still for the ones who believe
Heart will whisper the way, just turn your sails to the wind

Somewhere in the Great Sea
There is an island of lost dream

I froze the mountains high
And dimmed the light
So no eyes could gaze at us

Fallen star painted pale dawn
With it I fell so long ago
You know…

Wind blows from the seaside
Caressing the waves silver white
So no ears could hear us

Fallen star became the flame of soul
A spark of light in the darkness I long for
You know…

I pulled the shadows dark
Upon this rocks high and sharp
So none could ever find us

Because they would never understand
Why my heart goes mad
Why my soul burns
None shall know
But you, you know my soul

Fallen star of those gardens of glory and light
A fire of passion, eternal delight
You are but flames and golden glow
The one from those precious shores

A fallen star of ever hope
A flaming soul
That all you know…

In far land over the Great Sea
Where dwell the gardens of eternal spring

In far land beyond the Great Sea
Where midnight is pure and fear still unseen

Gardens so fair dwell there
Under the the sky ever clear
And trees shine so bright
Sharing their light
Of silver and gold
Dear Laurelin and Telperion

Come to me under silver leaves
Cease this pain tearing my soul
Be my soothing dream
My everlasting hope

Beyond the sea I search for home
Sailing alone for so long

Tell me you won’t leave me in the blue
Say my name in whisper so only I could hear you
Stay with me under starlit bloom
Never go there where I cannot reach you

Gentle hand lights the stars
None will see us
Shadows will hide us from all curious eyes

To the gardens so fair and pure we go
To a hidden place, our only home

Long dark years aloneGuarding your throne
Waiting here for your return

Cold and alone with nothing but a hope
I walk through white snow
One memory of you

Three hundred years
I count the days
Three hundred years
I bear the wait

Ever winter winds burn with cold
I close my eyes and see
Unlashed shadow still
Mirage so real
Dark shadow both young and old
One blink and a scene is gone

Three hundred years
I count the days
Three hundred years
I bear the wait

Another dawn rose
Upon high mountains of eternal frost
Dark rocks mourn with the wind
As I call for you in a dream

Three hundred years
I count the days
Three hundred years
I bear the wait
Three hundred years
I cry and pray
For you to come back

In darkness I see the light
Within farthest lands I seek pure delight
Howling with longing I try
To survive this agony blind

Three hundred years
Of dry tears
Alone facing my fears
I bear this hope through all these cold days
Three hundred years

I keep the faith, though alone
To see you again on your throne
Waiting so long for your return

Singing your chords I dreamt of the world
You told me once of
Three hundred years I’ve been bearing a hope
To see you once more
When with jewels brightest of all
You finally returned

Three hundred years alone
But no more
As you are now back home
