too old, now it's too late

[Pre-Chorus]
Live, and make true all of your dreams
When you are young
Memories are gold, when you are old

[Chorus]
Just Memories of Time
Live forever over our lives
They will see the future
To the end of the time
This little moment that we live here
Don't let us waste it in vain
Let's sail at full speed straight on

Every single dream
Is made to come true for all of us
When we believe in the future
And what it will bring to us

Look behind
The curtain of the world
You'll see how beautiful all could be
If you take challenge of this wonderful life

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Solo]

3. Fallen Star

[Words: Orjatsalo]
[Music: Keranen]

Gazing (at) the sky
On a clear winter's night
Moonlight lighting the path for me
High in the sky
A star seems to fly
A falling star, it will be my guide

Maiden is dancing
Enchanting the man
But in the end, who's in command?
With his sword of might
And his love by his side
He is ready to face the world

[Pre-Chorus]
Follow the star
It will lead you so far
Follow the light
Lighting the night

[Chorus]
Star is falling down
When it reaches the ground
I'll be there to take my toll
With my star-wrought sword
I shall honour my Lord
- But remember where it came from

[Speak]
But there, where the star fell
A beautiful maiden was dancing and singing
Stories tell that she descended from the Heavens
With the star...

But then came that time
The time of (a) great fight
Cries of war rang throughout the whole land
War tears apart
It will sunder the heart
But in the end, love will prevail

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Answer the call
But it will take its toll
Follow the light
Shining so bright

[Chorus]


4. Heart's Desire

[Words: Orjatsalo]
[Music: Keranen]

As the sun rises
I see our banners flowing in the wind
And the sounds of trumpets calling for war

All that night I lay awake
Thinking you, thinking war
The madness and despair I have seen

Now the time has come
We will charge to our doom
Arrows are whistling by my ears as we ride

[Pre-Chorus]
Please my guardian angel
Let me see my love again
In the mercy I thrive
Shelter me, as I shelter mine

[Chorus]
I'm riding away
From the light of the day
A letter left behind to lighten my way
I'm writing to you
Maybe (the) last time now
Please let me see your face once more again

Screaming men I left behind
I am sure they all will die
Blood is covering my armor and my sword

Where is the honour? The code we all held?
In this madness we all turn to beasts
Gathered at a grim feast

Our banner is down
We are scourged to death
Flash of pain was the last thing I saw in my life

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
I'm dying away, I'm leaving today
My rusting sword, lost, alone in this fray
I wrote to you
My last farewell
Please let me see your face once more again


5. Where The Rainbow Ends

[Words: Keranen]
[Music: Keranen]

In my dream I was in a valley
By waters clear as ice
Trees and mountains that surround me
Nothing so beautiful have I ever seen
Can a place like this these days still exist?
A place people haven't destroyed yet
There's no pollution, just fresh air
There are no men who wouldn't care
This is the paradise where I want to stay
Where no one else can find a way

Where the Rainbow Ends
There I go, there I mend
There's the land of the free
There's the place where I want to be
There I go - Where the Rainbow Ends

Mystery of this place keeps fascinating me
It preoccupies my mind, time after time
When I look at the sky and I see birds fly
It's a play at my theatre
Into this dreamland I always come back
Where my life goes on in the same, safe track
Take my hand and come with me
I'll show you the place you've never been
This is the paradise where I want to stay
Where no one else can find the way

Where the Rainbow Ends
There I go, there I mend
There's the land of the free
There's the place where I want to be
There I go - Where the Rainbow Ends

[Solo]

[Chorus]


6. Time Of Fatherhood

[Words: Keranen]
[Music: Keranen]

I'm watching the nightly sky
Like looking for answers from there
How am I going to say goodbye?
To you, the only one I care
Who knows what is my destiny?
Why (do) I have to escape my feelings?
And run with so much pain inside of me
Can I survive and forget everything that I feel?
Can I cover myself up in a veil of steel?

For no reason at all
I deny my feelings
I escape my life

I picture your face in my head
It makes me lose my mind
And all the feelings that I've thought dead
Wake alive
Now when years have passed from that night
When I fled and left you alone
Carrying new life by your inside
How have you got on, is everything all right?
These thousands of thoughts in my mind
Without answers at all

[Chorus:]
Time of Fatherhood
Then too much for me
I snuck out of your life, like a thief
Forgive me, no escaping anymore
Give me new chance to live


7. Dreamland

[Words: Orjatsalo]
[Music: Orjatsalo]

Come with me my friend
You'll see a place beyond reality
Fly into the night with me
Together through eternity

Earth they call this place they live
Look (at) the mountains, oceans so deep
Hatred, fear, intolerance
Peace will never have a chance

School too hard for man to learn
Were those lessons from the past
Time will show 'em answers true
One day they will learn to

[Chorus]
Fly with me toward the morning light
You will see what lies beyond the night
Place so real, where is no fear
No need to shed any tears

[Solo]

[Repeat Chorus]


8. Call Of The Wild

[Words: Orjatsalo]
[Music: Keranen]

Time, only time, but it's flowing
Covering our lives with its sand
Memories, flashbacks, from the time that's passed
Slowly, mind fades, it happened too fast
Going back to that silent vale
Where those whispers first called me to stay

Whispers come back, mind loses track
I won't let it touch my lies
Howling, screaming, burning inside
I will not bow to you
See your wrath and loathing increasing
Feel the warmth of suns' appealing
Burning, twisting, you're not so strong
Oh, you are wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Give me wings so that I could fly
Give me insight to see all those lies
Give me a stronger soul that will not bow
Give me the strength to go

[Chorus]
Give me my wings so I could fly
Beyond the reach of lies
I will go back for awhile
Over shards of our lives
Future holds me no prize
Into past, I shall dive - Call of the Wild


9. Dancing In The Twilight

[Words: Makinen]
[Music: Keranen]

Though sky he was, not blue or white
And wherever the winds were breezing
Clouds of black were falling down
And rain that was freezing

When the lightning struck
The moonlight was plain and pale
And blinking sky still silent as death
Staring from the above

We felt the ghostly face of night
And the damp covering its might
Sitting on the rock beyond the life
We stared again at the sky

Then the lightning struck the tree
Standing fearless on the hill
It was whispered to us to come by it
And feel the powers of nature so free

And now the nightingale was singing
Heard by two adventurers smiling
Under the moon that was now full
And mother nature in its infinity

Still the betrothed are sitting beyond the life
And wondering the glory and the adore of night
And the eternity continues as the freedom
Calls us to Dance in the Twilight...


10. Refuge From Reality

[Words: Orjatsalo, Keranen]
[Music: Keranen]

As my mind flows by
It wanders through the time
Darkness hides the light of day
And time goes by
It reaches shrouded mind
Shadows veil this unsound smile

[Pre-Chorus:]
Shadows hide the light
Bleakness fills my mind
I'll rise on my wings tonight

[Chorus:]
With the wind I fly at the nightly sky
I ride the lightning of the storm
I'm the hero of the tales
The son of thunder from the forgotten dales
This dreamland will be mine
Refuge from Reality

Dreaming's my way
To another better place
The door to my dreamtale
The tale never ends
Stories reaching through the time
Come with us and fly to the dark

[Pre-Chorus:]
Shadows hide the light
Bleakness fills my mind
I'll rise on my wings tonight

[Chorus:]
With the wind I fly at the nightly sky
I ride the lightning of the storm
I'm the hero of the tales
The son of thunder from the forgotten dales
This dreamland will be mine
Refuge from Reality


11. Silent Path

[Words: Orjatsalo]
[Music: Orjatsalo, Keranen]

Light's fading, night is calling
Covering the worries of day
Wind whispers, leaves are falling
Slowly light fades, comes to shade

Following the path to a silent vale
Whispers of wind call me to stay

Nightfall is weaving its spell
Darkness hides the land within its shell
Twilight lights my way as I flow
Realms beyond imagination I go

Blinded by time,
Of the years that have passed by
Left to astray
My minds own way

Nightfall is weaving its spell
Darkness hides the land within its shell
Twilight lights my way as I flow
Realms beyond imagination I go


12. Farewell...

[Words: Makinen]
[Music: Keranen]

Shadow lies bloodless on the hill
Frozen in the night of forgiven
Ceased to exist, in one life
As only the memory that remains

In the woods, where's eternity?
I sit in the valley of greed and daylight
Love to the stars and my Elven-dryad
My own savior, angel of night, my betrothed

For aeons I was with you, my friends
Amongst the mortals in their dreams
Burned out in the one star's end
Among enlightened thousands shining

[Chorus:]
Gazing from the sky, night in my eyes
As Elf I watch you, in my memories
So bright, doomed to die in starlight
Eternally I walk in the twilight

And bright are the stars that smile on me
And great is the joy I had with you
And remember me as the wolf that stares
With love, in the forest of dreams

With yellow eyes, all wise with color of Grey
So many times I was a stranger with you

Just a tiny little shadow that frightened
All days and nights, ran away in the rain

Where the trees are living and flowers are blue
I dream of the stars and my angel with me
