Nightwish - Sleeping Sun (2005 Version) lyrics

The sun is sleeping quietly Once upon a century Wistful oceans calm and red Ardent caresses laid to rest For my dreams I hold my life For wishes I behold my nights A truth at the end of time Losing faith makes a crime I wish for this night-time to last for a life-time 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 Two hundred twenty-two days of light Will be desired by a night A moment for the poet's play Until there's nothing left to say [repeat chorus x2]
