The days were brighter
Gardens more blooming
The nights had more hope
In their silence The wild was calling
Wishes were whispering
The time was there
But without a meaning
Away, away in time
Every dream's a journey away
Away to a home away from care
Everywhere's just a journey away
The days departed
Gardens deserted
This frail world
My only rest?
The wild calls no more
Wishes so hollow
The Barefoot Boy
weeping in an empty night
Away ...
Cherish the moment
Tower the skies
Don't let the dreamer
fade to grey like grass
No falling for life
A gain for every loss
Time gathered me
But kept me flying
"For this gift of dream I must pay the price
with the loss of life's pleasures"
Nightwish is a Finnish symphonic metal band formed in 1996 in Kitee. Considered pioneers of the genre, they have achieved international fame thanks to the combination of heavy metal with classical, orchestral and gothic elements. Their sound is characterized by epic melodies, lyrics often inspired by fantasy and mythological themes, and the powerful operatic voice of Floor Jansen (since 2012), who replaced Tarja Turunen after a period of internal controversy. Among their most representative songs are "Nemo", "Wish I Had An Angel" and "The Islander". The album "Once" (2004) is considered one of their most important works, achieving international success. The band has collaborated with numerous artists, including the Finnish orchestra and composer Tuomas Holopainen, who is also their main songwriter.
