Beauty Of The Beast - Nightwish

Trees have dropped their leaves,

Clouds their waters

All this burden is killing me Distance is covering your way,

Tears your memory

All this beauty is killing me Oh, do you care,

I still feel for you

So aware,

What should be lost is there

I fear I will never find anyone

I know my greatest pain is yet to come

Will we find each other in the dark

My long lost love

Safely away from the world

In a dream, timeless domain

A child, dreamy eyed,

Mother’s mirror, father’s pride

I wish I could come back to you

Once again feel the rain

Falling inside me Cleaning all that I’ve become

My home is far but the rest it lies so close

With my long lost love under the black rose

You told I had the eyes of a wolf

Search them and find the beauty of the beast

All of my songs can only be composed of the greatest of pains

Every single verse can only be born of the greatest of wishes

I wish I had one more night to live

A saint blessed me, drank me deeply

Spitting out the misery in me Still a sinner rapes 1000 saints

Sharing the the same hell with me Sanest choice in the insane world…

Beware the beast but enjoy the feast he offers

«Oh, sweet Christabel.

Share with me your poem.

For I know now, I’m a puppet on this silent stage show.

I’m but a poet who failed his best play.

A Dead Boy, who failed to write an ending

To each of his poems.»
