Sleeping sun

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and red
Ardent caressess laid to rest
For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime

I wish for this night-time
To last for a life-time
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea
Oh how I wish to go down with the sun

Sleeping
Weeping
With you

Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I´d sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go
Two hundred twenty-two days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poets play
Until there´s nothing left to say

I wish for…

(Nightwish - Sleeping sun)
