Siebenburgen - As Black As A Midnight Heart lyrics

rate me

Wings of angels, shaded the sky<br />

And stained the sunset with ebony stars<br />

Sorrow met madness, and daggers consumed<br />

Ashes of beauty, forlorn and defiled <br />

<br />

Behowling the purity of death<br />

The vicious temptress divine<br />

<br />

"...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride<br />

Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine<br />

I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart<br />

I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..." <br />

<br />

Passion and paleness, oaths of past<br />

Pleasures of urging pain and fear<br />

<br />

Shrouded darkness, the wicked enthrones<br />

The priestess of timeless lust arose<br />

Laid to rest, but slumbers not<br />

Deceived by her fearless dreams <br />

<br />

I buried thee<br />

My mistress nocturne<br />

I drank thy bitter wine,<br />

And tasted thy world bizarre<br />

Thee brought me madness,<br />

That I am sure<br />

But sands of time came closer,<br />

Farewell my bride, farewell...<br />

<br />

"...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride<br />

Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine<br />

I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart<br />

I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..." <br />

<br />

Pale as moonlight are the lilies on thy grave,<br />

Never fading, just like thee...<br />

Thou art with me, we share the same dream,<br />

Thy blackened treasure, now belongs to me...<br />

<br />

"...Forever have I searched for thee, my nocturnal bride<br />

Through centuries I have waited, but now thou art mine<br />

(Even though) I know that nothing is forever, and that dawn will do us apart<br />

I shed no tears or sorrow, I have kept thy midnight heart..."
