Lyrics

[03:04.10] A clouded dream on an earthly night
[03:07.95] Hangs upon the crescent moon
[03:12.33] A voiceless song in an ageless light
[03:16.56] Sings at the coming dawn
[03:20.84] Birds in flight are calling there
[03:25.08] Where the heart moves the stones
[03:29.46] It's there that my heart is longing for
[03:33.77] All for the love of you
[03:38.99]
[03:55.35] A painting hangs on an ivy wall
[03:59.69] Nestled in the emerald moss
[04:03.93] The eyes declare a truce of trust
[04:08.22] Then it draws me far away
[04:12.52] Where deep in the desert twilight
[04:16.81] Sand melts in pools of the sky
[04:21.21] Darkness lays her crimson cloak
[04:25.33] Your lamps will call me home
[04:31.26]
[04:34.12] And so it's there my homage's due
[04:38.39] Clutched by the still of the night
[04:42.77] Now I feel you move
[04:47.06] And every breath is full
[04:51.41] So it's there my homage's due
[04:55.66] Clutched by the still of the night
[05:00.01] Even the distance feels so near
[05:04.35] All for the love of you
[05:09.67]
[05:25.87] A clouded dream on an earthly night
[05:30.14] Hangs upon the crescent moon
[05:34.46] A voiceless song in an ageless light
[05:38.78] Sings at the coming dawn
[05:43.11] Birds in flight are calling there
[05:47.36] Where the heart moves the stones
[05:51.72] It's there that my heart is longing for
[05:56.05] All for the love of you
[06:01.76]
[06:50.58]
[07:34.97] END
