Within Temptation Album

She embraced, with a smile
As she opened the door.
A cold wind blows, it put's a chill into
her heart.

You have taken away the trust,
you're the ghost haunting through
her heart.
Past and present are one in her
head,
You're the ghost haunting through
her heart.

Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my life I gave to you.
Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my love I gave to you.

You have taken away the trust,
you're the ghost haunting through
her heart.
Past and present are one in her
head,
You're the ghost haunting through
her heart.

Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my life I gave to you.
Take my hand as I wonder through,
All my love I gave to you.

The gates of time have opened
Now, its chains are broken
An ancient force unleashed again
As I enter the portal
I feel the enchantment
It takes me away, away from here

Come near me,
Enter my private chambers
I wanna feel the warmth on my
face,
Light-in darkness,
Lift me up from here
Give me your wings,
To flee from my ivory tower

As I enter the portal
I feel the enchantment
The stars above are lying at my feet

Come near me,
Enter my private chambers
I wanna feel the warmth on my
face,
Light in darkness,
Lift me up from here
Give me your wings,
To flee from my ivory tower

After,
the cold darkness,
in the heart of the forest.
Where birds are singing,
for the new born sun

In the womb of the leaves,
on the branches of the trees,
lies the treasure of the morning,
the pearls of light.

Carried away by the truculence of
my world,
I got lost in the search for
enlightenment
The blue rain,
Covered my roots and I forgot
where I came from.

Carried away by the truculence of
my world,
I got lost in the search for
enlightenment
The blue rain,
Covered my roots and I forgot
where I came from.

Is there a place deep within
A place where you hide you're
darkest sins

There's a strange kind of ambiance,
its surrounding you.
As a songstress you lure me,
towards the truth.

Candles die down as you leave the
room
In my heart you leave no gloom
As you lure meI know the truth
You're a leprechaun, I see you
through.

Is there a place deep within
A place where you hide you're
darkest sins

There's a strange kind of ambiance,
its surrounding you.
As a songstress you lure me,
towards the truth.

The shadows of the night,
are unleashed ageinn.
Where their greed begins
the end is near.
A morbid hunger for blood,
lies in their cold black eyes
They've come to take ouur lifes
away.

One by one they died.
A massacre that took all night
They had no chance, it was no fight
You can't kil what has been killed
before,
They died...

With shadows on its tale.
He steppedThrough the portal,
locked the door and ate the key.
With his life they took their way to
freedom,
and be became the final keeper of
the key.

Cold are the bones of thy soldiers.
Longing for home, their little
paradise.
I don't feel remdeption on their side

Fallen from grace, help me rise
again.
Fallen from grace, help me through.

Fallen from grace, help me through.
Fallen from grace.

Feel these hands, the pressure, the
cold, tremble.

Do you hear these words.
Do you feel the wounds.
I'll never help you through.

Cold are thy souls.
I feel the resentment,
they feel betraid
They hate the cold
I don't feel redemption on their side.

Fallen from grace, help me rise again
Fallen from grace, help me through

[No lyrics]

Take away,
these hands of darkness.
Reaching for my soul.
Now, the cold wind
blows out my candles.
Feeling,
only fear,
without any hope.

A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb

We try not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every
candle's end

A thousand dark moons,
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.

We try not to forget,
They live through us
Slowly they die away at every
candle's end.
