Sonata Arctica - White Pearl, Black Oceans - Part II By the Grace of the Ocean" lyrics
[Sonata Arctica - White Pearl, Black Oceans - Part II By the Grace of the Ocean" lyrics]
Once I felt the embrace of the sea
Loved me, held me
Once I felt so despised by eternity
Fall upon me… it’s upon me
The waves are high above me
This’d be my home deep in the sea
Oh pain, float like a flower
The darkest sea refusing me
Music of the seven gentle tides
Fade, in distance darkness was a friend
Leaden the candle light
Slowly healing for a fortnight i’m alive
Memories i used to have a home in the light
But the meaning’s still escaping me
All the joy was gone along the barque
With the name… there’s a face
My story in the deep dark sea
Memories, he used to have a home in the light
The life he can’t remember anymore
Every night he sees the white
Barque in a dream
Every night adds colours to the memory
Guiding star above the shallow sea
The grave of angels
Beacon for the ones who need
To seize the night
For the last time, all on board the
White Pearl
All on board for the very last time
Close your eyes, oh calamity
Feel their pain for the very first time
See myself in a dream
There was a lady who was saved from the ocean
Without a name to tell, afraid to stay
She left, the leaves were umber
My only hope, she’s the one I have dreamt of
Follow my feelings, in her wake
I’ve become a true blight
I huddle in the daylight
Banished by my townsmen
With blood in my hands
Gallop across the moorlands
On a branded steed I’d stolen
Building my own gallows
Grave shallowed for a thief
Across the isle with the horse I ride
Close my eyes, oh calamity
Feel this pain for the very first time
I see her eyes, like a dream
I found the lady who was saved from the ocean
Without a name to tell, afraid to stay
She left, the leaves were umber
I wonder, if she’s the one I had dreamt of
Feelings get stronger in her wake
Without names to tell, afraid to stay
We left, in rain and thunder
We ponder, if our dreams we’re all handed
Only by the grace of the sea
Memories, I used to have a home in The Light
Now we keep the far-side of the sea
And the joy we knew is still alive
Trees so green
A New Face, The Beauty and the brand new me
The music of my chosen gentle tide
Turned into a story on the other side
A lone note in a lone vial "We are alive"
Loved me, held me
Once I felt so despised by eternity
Fall upon me… it’s upon me
The waves are high above me
This’d be my home deep in the sea
Oh pain, float like a flower
The darkest sea refusing me
Music of the seven gentle tides
Fade, in distance darkness was a friend
Leaden the candle light
Slowly healing for a fortnight i’m alive
Memories i used to have a home in the light
But the meaning’s still escaping me
All the joy was gone along the barque
With the name… there’s a face
My story in the deep dark sea
Memories, he used to have a home in the light
The life he can’t remember anymore
Every night he sees the white
Barque in a dream
Every night adds colours to the memory
Guiding star above the shallow sea
The grave of angels
Beacon for the ones who need
To seize the night
For the last time, all on board the
White Pearl
All on board for the very last time
Close your eyes, oh calamity
Feel their pain for the very first time
See myself in a dream
There was a lady who was saved from the ocean
Without a name to tell, afraid to stay
She left, the leaves were umber
My only hope, she’s the one I have dreamt of
