The Singing Of A Lonely Soul
by: NiobethA drop of love, in rain falling, lighting up my
darkness
His light becomes weaker, infinite ocean of stars...
Far away from a dream...
Now alone I wake, hidden in every corner
Blinded to my dreams, looking for my angel
Knowing not where my dreams are flying
Finding not anymore white or gold wings
Angels sing come take my ashes
Wings to dust, lost heart...
Leaving back the ways leading to the sunrise
Night takes in the lorn, await me...
Angels sing come take my ashes
Wings to dust, lost heart...
Queen of darkness, queen of night
I walk in sadness blinded by my fears
Emerald breeze caresses my tears
Angels sing come take my ashes
Wings to dust, lost heart...
Angels sing come take my ashes
Wings to dust, lost heart...
Tears of sorrow broken like crystal
Embrace cold forever,
Pale moon yearning
