[ti:Élan (Album Version)]
[ar:Nightwish]
[al:Élan]
[00:37.88]Leave the sleep and let the springtime talk
[00:42.00]In tongues from the time before men
[00:45.85]Listen to a daffodil tell her tale
[00:49.44]Let the guest in, walk out
[00:52.36]Be the first to greet the morn
[00:54.48]The meadows of heaven await harvest
[00:58.49]The cliffs unjumped, cold waters untouched
[01:02.20]The elsewhere creatures yet unseen
[01:06.02]Finally you number came up
[01:08.56]Free fall awaits the brave.
[01:17.75][02:43.22][03:43.19]Come, taste the wine, race the blind
[01:22.31][02:47.64][03:47.94]They will guide you from the light
[01:26.32][02:51.59][03:51.69]Writing noughts till the end of time
[01:32.92][02:58.17][03:58.05]Come, surf the clouds, race the dark
[01:37.61][03:02.90][04:02.89]It feeds from the runs undone
[01:41.12][03:06.40]Meet me where the cliff greets the sea
[01:48.39][02:39.72][03:13.53][04:14.26]
[02:03.43]The answer to the riddle before your eyes
[02:07.54]Is in dead leaves and fleeting skies
[02:11.22]Returning swans and sedulous mice
[02:15.02]Writing on the garden's book,
[02:17.87]in the minute of a lover's look
[02:20.27]Building a sandcastle close to the shore
[02:23.72]A house of cards from a worn out deck
[02:27.38]A home from a fellowship, poise and calm
[02:31.24]Write a lyric for the song
[02:34.02]Only you can understand
[03:28.00]Riding hard every shooting star
[03:31.60]Come to life, open mind, have a laugh at the orthodox
[03:35.81]Come drink deep, let the dam of mind seep
[03:39.00]Travel with great élan, dance a jig at the funeral
[04:06.46]Meet me where cliff greets the sea.
[04:13.16]Come!
