Lanternlight - Nightwish
Gone is the hurt, the wait Gone is the warmth of day
stray boat saved, happy memories engraved On into a velvety night
Beneath a lanternlight
Last night brought the heaviest of snows Melting the songs of old
Tying the boat, write a new one soon Sending me to the drowning moon
Far above a lanternlight
I'm in the light and flood I'm in the four winds
I am the waves shaping pebbles flawless gems I am the snow on your palm
I am the secret stream Moss beneath your feet
I am you who climbed off of my back Not long ago A sheltered song
In a world now gone Petrichor The timeless
Turn loose the swaying boat Meltwater, sound of spring
I hear our song now, sung by the free For a thousand
more tomorrows
Of an incomplete weave To the meadows I go I'll be waiting for you
Once upon a lanternlight
