Lyrics

[00:10.700] When I recall his parting words
[00:15.940] Must I accept his fate
[00:20.780] Or take myself far from this place
[00:26.630] I thought I heard a black bell toll
[00:32.310] A little bird did sing
[00:37.050] Man has no choice
[00:39.860] When he wants every thing
[00:46.480] We'll rise above the scarlet tide
[00:52.030] That trickles down through the mountain
[00:57.830] And separates the widow from the bride
[01:13.250] Man goes beyond his own decision
[01:18.560] Gets caught in a mechanism
[01:24.300] And swindlers who works like kings
[01:29.980] And broke those who break everything
[01:35.780] The dark of night was swiftly fading
[01:41.640] Close to the dawn of day
[01:46.570] Why would I want him just to lose him again
[01:55.500] We'll rise above the scarlet tide
[02:01.110] That trickles down through the mountain
[02:07.040] And separates the widow from the bride
[02:17.020] We'll rise above the scarlet tide
[02:22.450] That trickles down through the mountain
[02:28.380] And separates the widow from the bride
