VERSE
An older sign of life
It's written in the stars
Beyond the veil of night
And past the ethereal dust

And through the trees I walk
In shadows they are hiding
Alone yet not afraid
The moon above is guiding

PRECH
The fire igniting - the water flowing quiet
Deeper down - and beyond
The forest - the winter breeze is blowing
In the dark

CH
O' sweet and black embrace
Come wash away the pain
Of souls that find no place
Within this grim paradise

O' sweet and black embrace
Come wash away the pain
The stars will guide the brave enough
Through the shadows all around

VERSE 2
In restless fields
And over the cold mountains
A voice in the wind
The whispering remains

And in the deep blue sky
A falling star flies away
So far from my eyes
And looking so unreal


CH
O' sweet and black embrace…

BR (Spoken)
"The silvery mant of the night
Envelopes the dark shades of blue
All across the winter northern sky

And the boreal glare in sight
Writhes the spirit that shines through
Eyes that open wide in a glorious cry"

VERSE 3
The older sign of life
Engraved in the stars
Its veil of dark is rising
Across the moonlit sky

And through the trees they come
With no more place to hide
Alone and unafraid
The guidance has been done

PRECH
The fire igniting - the water flowing quiet...

CH
O' sweet and black embrace…
