Alpenglow - Nightwish

Once upon a time a song was heard

Giving birth to a child of Earth and verse

Together we slay another fright

Every jubjub bird, spooks of the past

Close your eyes and take a peek

The truth is easy to see

We were here

Roaming on the endless prairie

Writing an endless story

Building a Walden of our own

We were here

Grieving the saddened faces

Conquering the darkest places

Time to rest now and to finish the show

And become the music, one with alpenglow

Hand in hand, guiding me into light

You, the fairytale guise in blue and white

Together we slay another fright

Every jubjub bird, spooks of the past

Close your eyes and take a peek

The truth is easy to see

We were here

Roaming on the endless prairie

Writing an endless story

Building a Walden of our own

We were here

Grieving the saddened faces

Conquering the darkest places

Time to rest now and to finish the show

And become the music, one with alpenglow

You are my path, my home, my star

A beautiful tale within the tale

And when the dust needs to move on

I will tuck us in on a bed of snow

Painting white, silencing the valley we built

Together we’ll sleep

Devoured by life

We were here

Roaming on the endless prairie

Writing an endless story

Building a Walden of our own

We were here

Grieving the saddened faces

Conquering the darkest places

Time to rest now and to finish the show

And become the music, one with alpenglow

We were here

Roaming on the endless prairie

Writing an endless story

Building a Walden of our own

We were here

Grieving the saddened faces

Conquering the darkest places

Time to rest now and to finish the show

And become the music, one with alpenglow
