Timo Tolkki's Avalon - The Land Of New Hope lyrics



Tracks



01. Avalanche Anthem

Chaos and destruction, blackouts
The Elements are raging, there is
Nothing left from world we know
Mother Nature's domination
The signs were there, we didn't care
Time is running out for human race

Heading to the final hour
Losing all we have, the end of our days

Avalanche, Avalanche Anthem (repeats)
This is the price we pay
There's nothing left to say
Creation on its knees
Now everyone agrees

02. A World Without Us

Take me away, a world without us

How is the world without us?
Is there a chance to adjust?
Where is the beauty we all knew?
Faded away to the dew

And in this end is there hope
Is there a way for us to cope?
With total destruction of all
This is our final call

And so we run and so we hide
Cause it's all done, most of us died

A world without us-we're not learning
A world without us-not returning
To the new horizons we will roam
We will find at any cost
The beauty that was lost
So into the brave new world we go

Mankind is descends to the grave
Because of the road we did pave
There is nothing left for us to do
The deeds are done,time to go

Still we run, still we hide
And so we live, but most will die

03. Enshrined In My Memory

Is in every step that I take from you
Is in every move that I make
Is it so much easier to lie?
Is it so much easier to fly?
Everything that I used to have
Is forever gone

You and I must rewrite this song
We chose some words that did not belong
Everything that we used to have is enshrined in my memory
I won't give in, won't give up the fight
I sail way from the darkest night
Into the future with what we had enshrined in my memory

Deeper and deeper my path is going
Breathing in the air for lasting lie
I bring all the good things from the past
Find a way of how to make them last
Everything that I once used to have
I will have again

You and I...

04. In The Name Of The Rose

How... how innocence is dying here tonight
In the morning sun
And all that we fought for
Just embers that are glowing in the dark
When the day is done
Still innocence just has to die
Pure and simple, beautiful
And sorrow still fills my broken heart

In the name of the Rose
Die in the Rose
Looking through the morning haze I realize
In the name of the Rose
Everything I've ever been forevermore
In the name of the Rose

Dying, the innocence is dying here tonight
We got to move on
Fighting, we got to keep fighting 'til the end
We got to journey on
Towards the Avalon we go
The best is yet to come so follow me and others to
The promised land

05. We Will Find A Way

Moving along, deeper and deeper we go
Light fades away, the enemy is near
Got to be strong, further and further we go
Into the deep the great unknown is waiting

Long time ago hiding my fears in the dark
It's not too late cause it's time to go

We will find a way
There's nothing else to say
We will find the light
The future is shining bright

We will find a way
There's nothing more to say
And in the night
Won't give up the fight
This just feels so right
And we'll find a way
We will find a way

The magic is here
It feels so strong without fear
We're coming home
The land of hope is near

Long time ago...

06. Shine

Dear old world now I must go
Make me believe
That I can love again
The beauty of the universe
Beneath eternal skies
My soul was born to be free

Shine, just see how we are shining
The everlasting light
Will guide us through a brand new day

Dancing with the gods above
I feel like I have wings
The hymn to life I sing
The Silence, we seek to reborn
Goodbye, no words to say
Heaven is in our reach

Shine...

07. The Magic Of The Night

Long time ago
We knew the way
Now all is lost
Nothing to say
We went astray
Future unclear
Nothing left to do
Started a fight
It was in vain
Marching along
With armies of fools
Lambs to the slaughter
Chaos unseen
Destruction everywhere

Now here in this place it's so calm
The darkness caressing us all

The Magic of the night
Can you feel it in the air?
The Magic of the night
Better take care, beware

Onwards we go
To the unknown
Still searching for the Avalon
Mist in the air
Heaven is near
The ancient tale is true

Now here...

08. To The Edge Of The Earth

Avalon, I know we are so near
I hear its call
There's no way that we will fall
We're here and we're standing tall
Long time ago
We left all behind to seek this place
We only heard of in fairytales
But now it's reality

Our journey's nearing the end
We'll be there

'Round and 'round we go
Facing the mystery
Every moment fades away
Into the history
Each new second and the hour
We'll find what we're looking for
Even if we have to roam to the edge of the world

We face the truth
We die in the name of the Rose, we're true
There's magic in the air tonight
Everything feels so right
We're shining white
There is no return it is too late
The gates are near soon we'll face our final fate

Our journey is at the end
We are there

'Round and 'round...

09. I'll Sing You Home

So here we stand
Our backs against the wall
Opened eyed
We are here, we are here

Come with me
It is not far anymore
Hear my voice
Let it ring, let it ring

I'll sing you home
I'll show the way
Into the light of darkest day
Without a fight
I'll sing you home, I'll sing you home

10. The Land Of New Hope

Time goes on forever
We're caught in the game of never
You have come a long way
To find your destiny
The dawn of new way has stared

Close your eyes and leave all behind
Pure of heart are the ones that can pass through my gate
Leave your old ways and follow the shining light
There is a danger, the dark is always around

Come with me and open your hearts
What you'll see is not something you yet understand
I guard this land, it has always been this way
The dark is strong, but it has no place here

This is the Land of new Hope
Where pure of heart can make their home
It's hidden in your heart, where no one's searching for
There's so much to learn
Just make the turn
I'll show you the way to new day

You've come home and you've been through much
What you have seen, is the price that you all did pay
But everything can start all over
Time is forever and it's here where we build our future

This is the Land of new Hope
Where pure of heart can make their home
It's hidden in your heart, where no one's searching for
There's so much to learn
Just make the turn
I'll show you the way to new day

This is the Land of new Hope
Where pure of heart can make their home
It's hidden in your heart, where no one's searching for
When all lonely souls unite
Return to the light
Rejoice forever in you
