I was born amidst the purple waterfalls
I was weak yet not unblessed
Dead to the world Alive for the journey
One night I dreamt a white rose withering
A newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness
I dreamt all my future Relived my past
And witnessed the beauty of the beast
muisc
Where have all the feelings gone
Why has all the laughter ceased
Why am I loved only when I'm gone
Gone back in time to bless the child
music
How can I ever feel again
Given the chance would I return
Why am I loved only when I'm gone
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time
music
I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time

There's a poison drop in this cup of Man

To drink it is to follow the left hand path
music
Why am I loved only when I'm gone
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time
music
Where have all the feelings gone
Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you
Now unblessed homesick in time
Soon to be freed from care from human pain
My tale is the most bitter truth
Time pays us but with earth and dust and a dark silent grave
Remember my child Without innocence the cross is only iron
Hope is only an illusion and Ocean Soul's nothing but a name
The Child bless thee and keep thee forever
the end
