The Archive of Lost Dreams

Tarja Turunen

Far from the light 
To reach beneath a veil of mist
Countless stories
Were left to rest in peace

Darkened and calm
The grave uncared
Once a haven filled with hope
The archive of lost dreams

We send our inner fears
For the ocean to score
Waiting it takes them all 
Away from the shore

Deepest beliefs 
From billions of souls
Longing for our wishes
To find a way back home

Ah, Naiad
The last one in the unknown
The keeper of our written dreams
Ah, promises
None of them were left behind
She blessed them with her kiss

See, hear and feel
The miracle of life
Believe the signs 
And trust you'll stay alive
Descend to find 
The depth of your heart

Mysterious Naiad
Now the circle's closed forever
Ah, Naiad
The archive is gone
We are on our own
