Once Upon a Nightmare (Track Commentary)

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 the soul once more Sweet lad, o come and join me, do Such pretty games I will play with you On a road Changing course Lightning strikes where we depart An eerie voice as the night embraced the heart Resonating from the life that is moving on To the new window of the soul Will you, sweet lad, come along with me My daughters shall care for you tenderly Hear his mystic voice I love you, for your comeliness charms me, my boy And if you're not willing, my force I'll employ He feeds on stainless souls We are struck in the night Ancient power will strike Feel the fire Now run into his arms Leave your shelter behind We are going to fly Higher than high We will take on the sky Feel my senses United by the night Now it's time to close the door And open up like before New window of the soul The silence of the void A father's life destroyed Stuck 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
