A Return to the Sea Songtext
von Nightwish

A star falls down from the darkened sky
Where new worlds born and die
Kingdom Animalia
Watches its approaching glow

What it means is soon to be known

Beneath the lovely birch
Honeymakers build their nest in peace
On the savannah a lion licks a wounded gnu

To honor this moment
Even the heavens cease


Giant spiders learn how to swim
With whales they form a united kin
Snakes say hello to the rats on the ground

In the meadows play merrily the fox and the hound
Trilobite & Anymalocharis
The prey and the hunter

Survival of the fittest
Fall of Man
Seadrops foam all empty human skulls
Those on the shores of Atlantis
Darwin′s resurrection is witnessed
By turtles he used to play with

Healed and happy She oversees
The Mother
The tyrant's return to the sea
