Someone is dancing
On my grave
Sending shivers
Down my spine

I hear a laugh,
it awoke my soul
The wind takes the leafs
where he wants them to go
His tunes enchant our world,
our thoughts and leave us frozen

In this heart of mine,
It's you I find
Take my hand,
I'll take you to the promised land,
you're the one

I hear a laugh,
it awoke my soul,
The wind takes the leafs
where he wants them to go
His tunes, enchant our world,
our thoughts, and leave us frozen

Take my hand,
I'll take you to the promised land

Nevil, whatever you have done,
these tears will fade.
Nevil, wherever you have gone,
please, have faith


. . .


I know you're going away
I take my love into another day
In my thoughts you're with me
I fell in love with your ways

I know you are going away
Lead my heart into a daze
I know you are going away
Leaves a void in my heart and soul

Wherever you are, whatever you do
I feel the world surrounding you

Wherever you are, whatever you do
I know your independent
But I'm trying to get through to you

Wherever you are, whatever you do
Don't you know, it depents on you


. . .



Over the hills, lies a new beginning
Over the hills
Over the hills, there is a way I know it
Over the hillsYou can't bring all the gloom
Your heart is frayed and so empty
You glorify the future
Living in a different world than me
The journey ends in death
You are giving up so easily
You are the other half of meOver the hills [4x]We are drifting apart
Chilled to the marrow, cause you don't want to go
Cause we've got a different wish at heart
The amulet guides us to the other side
When I go down it's you who'll bleed
I'm not scared to die, as long as I'm with you
You are the other half of meOver the hills, lies a new beginning
Over the hills
Over the hills, there's a way I know it
Over the hills

She embraced, with a smile
As she opened the door.
A cold wind blows, it put's a chill into
her heart.

You have taken away the trust,
you're the ghost haunting through
her heart.
Past and present are one in her
head,
You're the ghost haunting through
her heart.

Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my life I gave to you.
Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my love I gave to you.

You have taken away the trust,
you're the ghost haunting through
her heart.
Past and present are one in her
head,
You're the ghost haunting through
her heart.

Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my life I gave to you.
Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my love I gave to you.

Take away,
these hands of darkness.
Reaching for my soul.
Now, the cold wind
blows out my candles.
Feeling,
only fear,
without any hope.

A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb

We try not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every
candle's end

A thousand dark moons,
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.

We try not to forget,
They live through us
Slowly they die away at every
candle's end.


. . .


After,
the cold darkness,
in the heart of the forest.
Where birds are singing,
for the new born sun

In the womb of the leaves,
on the branches of the trees,
lies the treasure of the morning,
the pearls of light.

Carried away by the truculence of
my world,
I got lost in the search for
enlightenment
The blue rain,
Covered my roots and I forgot
where I came from.

Carried away by the truculence of
my world,
I got lost in the search for
enlightenment
The blue rain,
Covered my roots and I forgot
where I came from.
