Lanternlight - Nightwish

Lyrics by：Tuomas Holopainen

Gone is the hurt the wait

Gone is the warmth of day

A 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

I walk now toward the trees

I am the secret stream

The night falling at my feet

Into the forest of Yesterwynde
