Winter's Verge - To You I Sail Tonight lyrics

rate me

Fading light from your memory still stays<br />

In my heart, your smile still remains<br />

Empty words in the book of my life<br />

As the tears from your eyes paint my mind<br />

Seven months from the day you are gone<br />

It's like seven hundred years, seven life times ago, <br />

If there was a way, I would bring you to me, <br />

Through hellfire and brimstone, at the ends of the seas<br />

<br />

What must it take for the dead to revive?<br />

Where should I go and what must I give?<br />

An old man of wisdom who knows about death and rebirth<br />

Will tell me the answers for the riddles I search<br />

"Deep in the seas where the dark water lays, <br />

North from the islands of mist and of rain, <br />

Behind the straight line where the sun hides to rest, <br />

There is the kingdom you crave of the dead."<br />

<br />

I hear your voice and my heart grows stronger, <br />

I feel your soul and my tears run dry, <br />

I see your face at the edge of the horizon, <br />

To you my love, I Sail Tonight<br />

<br />

Lightning and thunder - I'm trapped in a storm<br />

Captured by chains of water and foam<br />

The rain and the sea, my true enemy<br />

The anger of nature that stands in my way<br />

<br />

I struggle for you, to look into your eyes<br />

You are the color of the tears that I cry<br />

When I look in the water, reflections are dark, <br />

Dark like the tears of my tired aching heart<br />

<br />

I hear your voice and my heart grows stronger, <br />

I feel your soul and my tears run dry, <br />

I see your face at the edge of the horizon, <br />

To you my love, I Sail Tonight<br />

<br />

What force is this that commands the seas?<br />

What hell has broken loose? What demon is this?<br />

My fear and my pain will not go in vain, <br />

Our love is strong, it lights my way... <br />

<br />

I hear your voice and my heart grows stronger, <br />

I feel your soul and my tears run dry, <br />

I see your face at the edge of the horizon, <br />

To you my love, I Sail Tonight
