Intro:
Em D C Am Em (3x)
Em C Em C
Am
A nocturnal concerto
Dm
Candlelight whispers me where to go
Hymn of gathering stars as my guide
G Em
As I wander on this path of the night
Am
Embroidery of the stars
Dm
Undress my feelings for this earth
Send me your salva to heal my scars
G Em
And let this nakedness be my birth
Macrocosm poured its powers on me
And the hopes of this world I now must leave
The nightwish I sent you centuries ago
Has been heard by those who dwelled in a woe
The distance of our bridal bed
Await for me to be dead
Dust of the galaxies take my hand
Lead me to my beloved's land”
Interlude:
Bb F Eb Gm F
Bb
"This constant longing for your touch
F Eb
This bitter ocean of hatred and pain
Gm F
This loneliness I need to be who I am
Bb
The oceans are as alone as I
F Eb
Somebody take away this gift of mine
Gm F Gm
No charisma for the beast! But still I love you, forevermore!"
