Old Man (Demo 1997) Songtext / Lyric

So much further off than time could reach

Today it would be too late

So much despair he has bled

but will he wither away

No one knows that you must keep

this Old Man wide awake

'cause no one knows that he could feed

our lives with a brighter flame






(CHORUS 1:)

Hush little dreamer, the bearer of light

has come to set you free

Now little dreamer at last you can sigh

'cause the nightmares will be released



(CHORUS 2:)

Sweeter far than life I found that love was

Sweeter far than love to die as he did

(J.L.Runeberg)



(REPEAT CHORUS 1)



The stars fell from the nightsky

as he reached his hands in the air

As the sun peeked between the trees

the Old Man burst to tears



(REPEAT CHORUS 2)
