Blind Guardian - текст песни "The Last Candle"

Guardian, Guardian, Guardian of the Blind (4x)
Have you forgotten him
(lead: Andre)

Far from the land
Where the sun is born
down in the wood "Caladon"
Do you know the place
where the light is never seen
and all the hopes are turned
by the final cry
Turned to Stone (4x)

Whispering tunes in the wind
all hopes are gone with the night
when the old man will never come back
remember his words and his songs
And we see the raven's flying in the distance
but no wizard's singing his song

Ref.: Somebodies out in the night
I fly in time
The last candle will burn
there's hope for everyone
when the last candle burns high
oh it's time for life
(lead: Andre)

The elves and gnoms have to hide
when the moon is showing it's face
and raging orcs will set their traps
and the forest will burn
they hate green trees
and love the dark
they don't understand
that they're caught and left alone
they feel the magic in the wind
they're just fear the old man's song
(solo: Kai)

Ref.: Somebodies...

Corrupted old gnom
betrayer of all
you know so much about all
what is your price?

GNOM:
"Too much, too much
you cannot pay with your silver and your gold
there's just a little chance to save the wizard's life
there's just a little chance for all you fools
now pay"
(lead: Andre)

And so I walk across the land
and hope to hear the wizard's song

Ref.: Somebodies... (2x)

Outro: Somebodies out there
I feel there's somebody
Somebodies out there
I feel there's somebody

RUN FOR THE NIGHT (live)

There comes the last part and end of our old age
With thunder and lightning the dark lord is taking
The crown of the whole world
His creatures will kill me poisons my soul
To the end I will fight but I know that the things
That I do are so meanless - oh, no !

I see the hill but it's so far away I know I can't reach it
But I try it again and again in my dark dreams
He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here
When the mightiest of all will now

Refrain:
Run for the Night burn away
The times of his fall I've to pay

Visions of darkness prepared for the last strike
Blooddlust their weapons and madness you see feel their
Eyes there's no way out
I'm lost in a dark dream and losing control
To the end I will fight but I know that the things
That I do are so meanless - oh, no

I see the hill but it's so far away I know I can't reach it
But try it again and again in my dark dreams
He's waysting my last will how long can I stay here
When the mightiest of all will now

Refrain:
Run for the Night burn away
The times of his fall I've to pay

You see them running in the shadows of the night
It is not what it used to be
They've been scared and they've been anxiously tonight
You see them running with the wind

They
Run for the night
Run for the night
Run for the night

Solo

Refrain:
Run for the Night far away
The times of his fall I've to pay
Run for the Night far away
The times of his fall I've to pay
