Nightwish - Dead Gardens: lyrics de la chanson

The story behind the painting I drew is already told
No more tearstains on the pages of my diary
Tired but unable to give up since I am
Responsible for the lives I saved

The play is done
The curtains down

All the tales are told
All the orchids gone
Lost in my own world
Now I care for dead gardens

My song is little worth of anymore
Time to lay this weary pen aside

The play is done
The curtains down

Where are the wolves, the underwater moon
The elvepath, the haven of youth
Lagoons of the starlight sea
Have I felt enough for one man's deed?
Or is it time to challenge the Ancient of Days
And let the virgin conceive

All the tales are told
All the orchids gone
Lost in my own world
Now I care for dead gardens
