Chinese Lanterns Songtext
von A Silent Film

Dreamer dreams - blossom springs
Colour follows you around
A paper queen - flickering
I hear nothing but the sound

I hope it happens before the candle burns out - before your memories fade
I hope you′re ready for when the stars come out - don't be afraid
Don′t run away - tonight I want to see you


Floating on a sea of light
Chinese lanterns in the sky
Sailing over you and I
Chinese lanterns guide us tonight

Ocean swell on heaven's stage
A wind that whistles to a tune
Broken bell in a hollow cage
I know you'll be back with me soon

And you know I′ll follow wherever the wind may blow - don′t be afraid
Don't run away - tonight I want to show you

As one dancing figurine came sailing into view
I know I saw your face the way you want me too
And then just like in a dream the night burst like the flowers bloom

Just for us, it′s all for us
