Gabriel:
Am F Dm G
Days have come, winters have gone,
Am F Am
and we gambled like siblings in Paradise.
Am F Dm G
I was your knight, holding you tight
Am F Am
as a brother when I saw your crying eyes.
G C E Am
Time went by and we had to say goodbye.
D Am
Staring up to the clouds above
D Am
Children - so little and sad.
E Am G C
Hoping the saints could help one day
E C
Lead us together again.
Am G F D
Holding the key to the alley of dreams
E
still in hands.
C G
Time telling me to say farewell
Am
but I knew that I would fight hell
F C G
and I know: We will
C G
go for another time we can sing,
F
for another time we'll be free,
E Am
for no more farewell.
Anna:
Stepbrother tell me where have you been
when they brought me to this
godforsaken place.
Sign of the cross - they took me away
for healing with herbs by the way of grace.
Now I wait for the day to feed the flames.
Gabriel:
I have been caught in a cage of despair.
My heart as a monk's cell so empty and bare.
But no holy water
can make me
forget you again...
Time telling me to say farewell
but I knew that I would fight hell
and I knew: We will
go for another time we can see,
for another time we'll be free,
for no more farewell.
Lugaid:
No farewell could be the last one.
If you long to meet again...
