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!"

Gm	Em	C#m	Em	C#m	Em

Em	D	C	Am	Em

Em	  D
“Come to me
         C	Am
Deliver me from you
     Em
And from all the days of the Earth”

Em        D
No last words to say
         C
Only memories remain
 Am        Em
A farewell then, my path goes forever on

Em	D	C	Am	(3x)
