How's the Heart? - Nightwish

Lyrics by：Tuomas Holopainen

Composed by：Tuomas Holopainen

We see a mother with no child

We meet a stranger poor exiled

How's the heart while it still beats

Asks a no one

Another John Doe

Sorrow hides well in your shell

A fellow man with hurt to spare

Dear one here I am to share the fear

An act of kindness

Without an Amen

How's the heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound the human paean

Come in the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more

We met where the cliff greets the sea

Shared a story took the leap

Rose up rooted hid a note

You know where

You've been there

Now there's one who came from me

A child of light another tale

Dear one night will come but not to stay

Why

The answer is in the

How's the heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound the human paean

Come in the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more

Fair winds my love

Fly towards the calm

Fly utterly lost

Towards a beating heart

A beating heart

How's that heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in the fire's warm

How's that heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in the fire's warm

How's the heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in

How's the heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in the fire's warm

Down the blade and dance some more

How's the heart

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in the fire's warm

Down the blade and dance some more

How's the heart

Underneath the silence

How's the one

Drowning in the mire

Let us sound a human paen

Come on in the fire's warm

Burn the rope and dance some more
