Gravenimage

Sonata Arctica

We met that night, when the sea ran high

And I craved for more of that nearlove experience

Those who the music hath then joined together,

Are now but asunder…



Remember me, when I lit the fire

To Keep us warm

On a cold winter morning

Now I pass through the moment

Can I still recognize a beautiful melody…



I play a note, but hear no sound

Have I lost my love or the wings I found

When I was young…



…and eager to please anyone who had time…



Needed to sing the very notes I heard

Had to stay in the shadows and seek for the loneliness

Nevertheless, the price was higher than I realized

I was to live alone, ready to make the sacrifice

Was I in love with you…



My old heart, little harder again

Once the light goes out, everything ends

It is time…

Ready to cause a scene, ready to make the sacrifice

Ready to play the note, ready to end the final show

The only thing I know



The Pain is here

To stay I fear

In my eyes

I can change one note and make you cry

In this state of mind

Silence is a crime



How can life be so feigned and cold

I´ve answered the call of every melody, lovingly

Did I find the answers to all my questions



Or a Gravenimage of me…



If I found the hidden fountain

Drank the wisdom from it´s deep

Would I have the time to save me

Would I have them both to keep
