Once Upon a Nightmare Lyrics
On the way to sacred shores
And in the arms of the life that we adore
Moonlight shows a white design
That's been waiting for a chance to seize a soul once moreSweet lad, o come and join me, do!
Such pretty games I will play with youOn a road
Changing courseLightning strikes where we depart
An eerie voice as the night embrace the heart
Resonating from the life that is moving on
To new windows of the soulWill you, sweet lad, come along with me?
My daughters shall care for you tenderlyHear his mystic voiceI love you, your comeliness charms me, my boy!
And if you're not willing, my force I'll employHe feeds on stainless soulsWe are stuck in the night
Ancient power will strike
Feel the fire
Now run into his arms
Leave your shelter behind
We are going to flyHigher than high
We will take on the sky
Feel my senses
United by the nightNow it's time to close the door
And open up like before
New windows of the soulThe silence of the void
A father's life destroyedStuck in the night
Ancient power will strike
Feel the fire
Burn inside
Run into my arms
Leave your shelter behind
We're going to fly
See us fly
And hear our cry
We're out of sight
Higher than high we will
Take on the sky
Feel my senses
Out of my sight
But live on in my mind
New windows of our soul
