DARK AT DAWN LYRICS

1. Whispers Of Forgotten Lore

Walk through the mist at the awakening day
Threatening obscure dismal dark clouds my way

[Chorus]
Seducing whisper leads me down
To shallow seas in which to drown
Trapped within magic lullabies
Just as I heard his cursing cries

"Never see the day lit time
Dragon be, revenge is mine

You will forget what you once thought was yours
I'll take your shape and I will take her, too."

[Chorus]

The curse will last until you see
and break the chains of "never-free"

[Chorus]

2. Across The Oceans Of Time

I can't wait anymore
Crossed the oceans of time
Hoping once you'd be mine
One desire I keep - for you
And just one wish I pray
'Til the end of all days

You are the light, the brightest light
I had to bury down deep in my heart
After the gloaming waits for dawn
The only rose that can bloom in the dark

At first beam I could live again
Not just shadows could touch
Be as close as the dark
Heed the voice in the wind
And the first beam of light
Takes away gloomy nights

You are alive, you never died
Deep in my soul you're condemned to live on
The day I desire draws so near
Forces the flame in my veins to burn on

And if there's once a rose that blooms
Like your never fading beauty
The sword of mine is at her side
Across the wide oceans of time

Come to me to carry what was lost
Roam through daytime grey
So long a search still going on
I came to claim what just belongs to me...
just to me...

3. Legends

Please tell me if they are true
The tales and the legends we're told
Happened in ancient times
We don't know where they belong
Tales of creatures unknown
Of things we don't see are they lies?

[Chorus]
Before the dawn of time - when legends all were born
Before the dawn of time - awaiting the first breath
Before the dawn of time - is there anything we've lost
Before the dawn of time - are we allowed to judge the past

While we're searching for proves
All mankind will come to an end
Can't we learn from our mind
When fantasy takes command
Do we have to decide
What's good and what's insanity?

[Chorus]

Can we tell for sure
That nothing exists we don't see
Do we know all the powers
That are between heaven and earth
We've now found the one true explanation
That's killing the creed

[Chorus]

4. Empty

The mist covers the trees and flowers
With wet eyes I stand here and stare
Alone I'll find my way in the darkness
Longing to fly through the air

The wave swallows my cries and laughter
Just part of the sea are my tears
When I'll swim through the wildest oceans
Drowning is my only fear

All the beauty I see
It won't last eternally
No more beauty to see
And the world is empty

The wind covers all tracks of me
On hot sand I walk through the night
As stars seem to sear me in the desert
A dream it is to my delight

Don't tell me that
All the beauty I see won't last eternally
When there's
No more beauty to see, then the world is empty

5. The Voice Of The Gods

Now finally on the way
Strong winds will take us home
No one we will obey
But our gods all alone
The oars are gliding in
The blackened nordic sea
And driven by the wind
The waves we must defeat

[Chorus]
The voice we can here is the old northern call
Still guiding us on our course
This song in the wind born in warrior's hall
Is leading our way back home

Arrival is a feast
We've been gone for far too long
Remembering the dead
Many brothers, they are gone
But with their swords in hand
And restless souls within
We'll return to the land
That they are buried in

[Chorus]

You feel the bond when you are born
Where mountains touch the sky
Eternal ice and raging storms
Up where the eagles fly
You hear the hooves of Sleipnir pound
Wolves and ravens by his side
With one eye watch us through the clouds
And take us as we die

[Chorus]
