Sleeping Sun Songtext
von Tarja

The sun is sleeping quietly
Once upon a century
Wistful oceans calm and rest
Ardent caresses laid to rest

For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes, I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime

I wish for this nighttime
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea

Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping, weeping with you

Sorrow has a human heart
From my god it will depart
I′d sail before a thousand moons
Never finding where to go


222 days of light
Will be desired by a night
A moment for the poet's play
Until there′s nothing left to say

I wish for this nighttime
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea

Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping, weeping with you

I wish for this nighttime
To last for a lifetime
The darkness around me
Shores of a solar sea

Oh, how I wish to go down with the sun
Sleeping, weeping with you

Thank you very much
Thank you for those years as well
Thank you so much

I love you too, thank you
Thank you very much
