The Nightwishing Queen Presents: The Dream
[Intro] (But the dream) (Was only a dream) [Buildup] [Verse 1] Once beneath a silver sky A whispered wonder came to me Guiding through a moonless sea To shores where broken hopes could fly Sunlit crowns of amber gold Danced upon the waking earth Promising a second birth Far beyond the grief of old [Pre-chorus] (But the dream,) (Was only a dream) [Chorus] It never came to be Cause the Nightwishing queen Is still haunting me The light of day I will never see (I will never see) Because the dream Was only a dream [Instrumental post-chorus] [Verse 2] There I found a starlit grace A kindred soul to share my years A haven built through joy and tears Heaven shining in her face Autumns passed and branches grew Still I see that sacred light And her smile that final night Before the darkness claimed its due [Pre-chorus] (But the dream,) (Was only a dream) [Chorus] It never came to be Cause the Nightwishing queen Is still haunting me The light of day I will never see (I will never see) Because the dream Was only a dream [Instrumental post-chorus] [Bridge] In endless darkness I remain Bound within her cold embrace One silent wish I dare to make That somehow night will break But her shadow holds me fast And seals the path before me Leaving only memories Of a life that could have been [Instrumental solo] [Pre-chorus] (But the dream,) (Was only a dream) [Chorus] It never came to be Cause the Nightwishing queen Is still haunting me The light of day I will never see (I will never see) Because the dream Was only a dream [Instrumental outro]
