09 This Distant Sun - Part III
Coming down from Willow's Peak,
Still enchanted by the whispered tales of once.
Blossoms gleaming at my feet,
And I know that somewhere there is still a distant sun.
08 The Great Silence
I cannot recall the light being that bright
That it's blinding my ears with the noise.
I cannot recall the snow being that white,
Wrapping me in a cold lonely voice.
I cannot recall myself being that deaf
That I couldn't see tears in your eyes.
I cannot recall myself being that dead
That I couldn't tell any more lies.
Yes, somehow I recall the ...
07 The Journey
The sky's turning blue with the promise of dew,
The shadows of night disappear,
And as I left Wolfsheim in silence and tears,
A piece of my heart was still there.
I wandered on ways that might bring me disgrace,
Yet I dared not to turn back
'Til at last my black fears I'd to face on a place
That I found at the end ...
06 Wolfsheim
Walking through Daltilon's forest of thyme,
Looking for mem'ries that once have been mine.
Leaves rustling 'neath my feet, autumn calls cold,
Rainclouds are rising, Sol sets on threshold.
Nearing a clearing the shadows grow tall.
A breeze grabs my robe and the stars seem to fall.
I call to my mind for a small spell of light,
As night rushes in, glow seem double as ...
05 This Distant Sun - Part II
Now the willows bow their heads and shed their leaves
As if weeping for a time now gone.
And when I came to take a look into the pool,
I could see the fire of that distant sun.
04 Kings of Eridu
Come, let us go, the war is over by now.
Take your time and leave Daltilon behind.
Seal the gates, leave the city, let the sand cover our dreams.
Dreams of magic, dreams of power, they're all too true now so it seems.
Just hope for the walls to hold or we never will get old.
Show the mortals, show the gods ...
03 The Haunted Palace
In the greenest of our valleys
Not far from where Gabriel guarded the gates
By good angels tenanted
Once a fair and stately palace
By Solomon's hand raised the heavens to praise
Radiant palace reared its head
In the monarch thoughts dominion
Over the fields of Jerusalem
It stood there
Never seraph sperad a pinion
The sojourners of Goshen were cradled by him
Over fabric half so fair
Banners ...
02 The Company of Gods
Every day I'm sitting on the cliffs and look beyond the sea.
My thoughts are soaring high above the storm that's hanging over me
And carry me across the raging waves towards the shining shore,
The lands which oft are being told of both in legend and in lore.
And so one day I set out, bound to leave the ...
01 This Distant Sun - Part I
Walking up to Willow's Peak,
Sink into the clouds that race these endless skies.
Feel the earth beneath my feet.
They gather yonder at the pool where wisdom lies.
When I went down to this shore, yesterday or the day before,
They held images in the deep, scenes from legend and from lore.
