Live by dreaming A walkabout in olden slopes Wake up sleeping In soil covered in ice Where will the roses grow
Floating in a haze Like seaweed to the shore Who will bring back the silky scents Of the hills of evermore
Then I woke up at the first break of night My eyes were the only light And I shall count these the last days of the sun And seek comfort in darkness 'Til my lifethread is spun
The colours of black The music of the night
Throw your voice high into the air full of pride Find your own road to glory Use what powers life may give you Never cease the fight If you cannot win the day Seize the night
Only given pleasure; to learn to yearn for it Only given light; to be blind without it Only given power; to be scared to use it Only given mind; to finally lose it
The colours of black The music of the night
Maybe this is my true realm In thruth I may be blinded by light If such is indeed my purpose I shall seize the night
Throw your voice high into the air full of pride Find your own road to glory Use what powers life may give you Never cease the fight If you cannot win the day Seize the night
