Gla** Hammer - We Slept, We Dreamed lyrics

So long ago it was 'neath fragrant bowers we met like pillars, oak and elm rose towering over our heads and spring was nigh In youth we were heedless, reckless and in love Throwing care to the wind Never noticing Time meanced all and all we held dear So we dance in moonlight 'neath starry skies as gentle winds were stirred Time could not catch us, we dancers in twilight For as swift as deer we ran from him For being young we saw not that he would win The Truth! We could not see the Truth! Straight as an arrow we flew to him He ran not behind but before us Years, how they fled And we were left, two wanderers roaming lost 'mid the trees And the shadows that we'd made were following, ever following Weary of dancing now, the race was over for youth was spent and we could not change all that was done Time can seem such a bitter thing for this is the song he sang to us... Curses you wrought and d**h pursued In countless ways a doom you wooed And it's left you here at last alone, all alone Wake now! Rise now! There remains a light ahead and I see it! It leads homeward where Time can't follow Time can't touch us Sleep, he bid us sleep Amid the stones we lay He left us here Sorrow heaped on sorrow Yet beneath this crushing weight we'll struggle through It matters not what horrors he may thrust on us to weigh us down He must not be given the final say We'll loose the chains he's place on us and head for home His comrades gather close, they are the Shadows of Regret; they loom, we fall Ex sepulchro atro gemimus Pallidi trementes per frigus Corda immota tamen errant Curis anxa perpetuo Inexpleta nam ardant
