It is so barren here The trees scratch at the sky This winter atmosphere Landscape encased in stone and ice The terrain yields little hope But deep within my heart I know We are so far from Paradise Where longing tears at tender hearts just like a vulture We are so far from Paradise Exiled to a land where love is fleeting glances at the future I reach out just to touch This creature from my wildest dream The apparition dissipates And sorrow fills me once again But I believe the sun exists even when it is eclipsed We are so far from paradise Where passions tear at tender hearts just like a vulture We are so far from paradise Exiled to a land where love is fleeting glances at the future. My dreams and longing Are all I cradle here tonight But wisdom speaks to me Of beings birthed of hope and light And someday we will make it right © 2004 eveghost
