DARK MOOR LYRICS

[Instrumental]

2. First Lance Of Spain

On this letter
a great flood of tears will fall,
but it's better
a last farewell to recall.

It's been the sentence:
I'll be tomorrow shot down.
Feel no repentance
'cause more courageous I've grown.

I'm out of breath,
there's no more time,
it's coming death
to pull the crime.

Unconcerned death, my dear wife,
doesn't take out but gives more life.
Don't come to me or I shall break down
I must gain honour and renown
Forever, no matter the pain,
I'll be the First Lance of Spain.

Till I die
my last sign
is yours.

Just your vision
would take my will power away,
my decision:
together we mustn't stay.

My last endeavour:
showing a still countenance,
leads me forever
to be the Spanish First Lance.

I'm out of breath,
there's no more time,
it's coming death
to pull the crime.

Unconcerned death, my dear wife,
doesn't take out but gives more life.
Don't come to me or I shall break down
I must gain honour and renown
Forever, no matter the pain,
I'll be the First Lance of Spain.

Yours till death,
my last breath.

3. This Is My Way

This is my way:
a bitter hint in a true laughter.
This is my world:
better a "soon" than the best "after".
Living my way,
living my world,
in contradiction.

This is my way:
a smiling child playing in rapture.
This is my world:
honesty and right always in capture.
Living my way,
living my world,
in contradiction.

The gladness,
the sadness,
are both my life,
they're the same:
comedy and melodrame.

O, my life!
O, my body and soul
walk by the beach,
run through the streets,
only trying to reach
my innocence as it fleets
at leisure stroll.

This is my way:
fire in the heart
and in my imagination.
This is my world:
needed of art
and of a brilliant inspiration.
Living my way,
living my world,
in contradiction.

The gladness,
the sadness,
are both my life,
they're the same:
comedy and melodrame.

O, my life!
O, my body and soul
walk by the beach,
run through the streets,
only trying to reach
my innocence as it fleets
at leisure stroll.

4. The Road Again

A gray mirage flees when the sun light glows
I have to leave my past pursuit,
Now I realize which is the way to go.
It is time to follow the route.

The road again,
like a revelation,
the road again,
without hesitation.
I wanna go where I gotta go.
My road...

Another election,
a new direction,
is just a second chance.

Uneasy selections,
some circumventions,
always a big advance.

Aware of my actions,
expecting reactions,
collecting soon their fruits.

It is time to follow the route.

The road again,
like a revelation,
the road again,
without hesitation.
I wanna go where I gotta go.
[repeat]

5. Together As Ever

Deep inside me,
I feel a storm,
its echoes flee,
I rest warm.
It's like a bomb
of fire and sound,
it's coming from
where profound.

My world's made of tears
since you departed to disappear,
but my hope is clear:
I will carry on standing up here.

I'm a white paper with a blot,
I'm a bright sun with a black spot,
and in my dreams we are together as ever.
I'm a clear mirror with a crack
that reflexes you forever,
and in my dreams we are together as ever.

Deep inside you,
you feel a chill,
it's something new
and gets you ill.
It's like voodoo,
a magic rite,
it ties up you,
stops your flight.

My world's made of tears
since you departed to disappear,
but my hope is clear:
I will carry on standing up here.

I'm a white paper with a blot,
I'm a bright sun with a black spot,
and in my dreams we are together as ever.
I'm a clear mirror with a crack
that reflexes you forever,
and in my dreams we are together as ever.

6. The City Of Peace

Where resounds the river
with bright foams of silver
and the wind's an aromatic stroke.

Where some people's living
in peace, and God's giving
his blessed grace to the peaceful folks.

In the Middle Ages,
in its last stages,
it's flourishing a new paradigm.

In this place, three cultures
from cots to sepultures,
have come out to a convival time.

In the city of peace
it's a shining high the oldish star,
near by the moon,
over the cross.

The example and its echoes are
astounding, soon,
the world across.

The moon, the cross,
and so, the star
are all the forms of the same God who is so far.
The moon, the cross,
and so, the star
together, are of peace and love avatar.

In the city of peace
it's a shining high the oldish star,
near by the moon,
over the cross.

The example and its echoes are
astounding, soon,
the world across.

City of peace,
divine caprice,
you are the city of faiths' intercross,
o, you,
city of peace,
of moon, star,
and cross...

7. Gara & Jonay

Only you
fill me with love replete,
the land and sea
are forms of you and me,
with you I feel complete,
my love.

Only you,
forever my girlfriend,
together in dance
and between us a lance
and before us the end,
my love.

We are the fire,
we are the water, too,
the world entire,
just me and you,
my love.

Only you
perceive the best of me,
stars in the skies
are witness, and their eyes
express their joy and glee,
my love.

Only you,
forever my girlfriend,
together in dance
and between us a lance
and before us the end,
my love.

We are the fire,
we are the water, too,
the world entire,
just me and you,
my love.

Only you
have made my destiny,
sun in your face,
my strong and tight embrace,
our wish to set us free,
my love.

Only you,
forever my girlfriend,
together in dance
and between us a lance
and before us the end,
my love.

8. Living In A Nightmare

Silence in black
is coming back,
there is a Light somewhere.

Monsters are shades
that never fades
from unreasonable dreams...

I can think
in black ink
about the world

Tragic.
World of magic.
Master.
War disaster.
Goya.
Living in a nightmare.
Manic.
Mind in panic.
Freeman.
Cult of demon.
Goya.
Living in a nightmare, aye!
[repeat]

Candles and nights,
blood and bullfights,
also an "akelarre".

Reason when sleeps
grows terror creeps
from unreasonable dreams...

I can think
in black ink
about the world

Tragic.
World of magic.
Master.
War disaster.
Goya.
Living in a nightmare.
Manic.
Mind in panic.
Freeman.
Cult of demon.
Goya.
Living in a nightmare, aye!
[repeat]

9. El Último Rey

Por el Albaicín
Mis recuerdos van
De uno a otro confín crecen
En tu gran jardín
Reina el arrayán
Que brisas sin fin mecen

[Pre-chorus:]
Flor nazarí, yo te perdí
Y ahora me siento más andalusí
Sueño la alhambra donde yo nací…

[Chorus:]
Miré hacia atrás, lloré por ti, Granada
Nunca jamás quise rendir, mi amada
Todo mi ser quedó en tu sol, Granada
Al perder, llorando como mujer

Perla occidental, mi gran capital
Fuiste para mí y te perdí…
Como una mujer, lloro tu nombre
Y aunque me asombre
Lo supera en ser como un hombre…

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

10. Saint James' Way

Look at the sky,
the Milky Way,
it rules up high
night and day.

Walk step by step,
find their inner force,
this gives you pep
in your course.

Way of Saint James,
the experience of being anew.
Way of Saint James,
it puts a start on you.

Learn of your trek,
keep pace
whole days.
And learn when you check
each face,
each place.
Learning all your way long,
right along.
Learn with your rest,
lids tight
all night.
And learn of your quest,
it's right
your sight.
Learning all your way long,
right along.

Dust on the road
carries away
each episode
of your way.

Keep coming forth,
body and soul,
it's in the North
your real goal.

Way of Saint James,
the experience of being anew.
Way of Saint James,
it puts a start on you.

Learn of your trek,
keep pace
whole days.
And learn when you check
each face,
each place.
Learning all your way long,
right along.
Learn with your rest,
lids tight
all night.
And learn of your quest,
it's right
your sight.
Learning all your way long,
right along.
