A Dream That Cannot Be

Years of wait are over now She's almost in my grasp Now I will fulfill my vow She will be mine at last I feel him near The boy estranged has now returned A full grown man, but still I fear that nothing's changed He simply does not understand Come with me I'll set you free And I'll show you What your life could be You can't see That I am free My life is mine, Not yours, so leave me be Through forests deep, over mountains high I've crossed the waves for her In shadows dark, this cursed night My thoughts and memories stir I've left the memories Of our youth behind I don't know what he hopes to find In the shadows he waits for me Come with me I'll set you free And I'll show you What your life could be You can't see That I am free My life is mine, Not yours, so leave me be She refuses to leave So I grab her by force I pull the knife I've concealed I put the edge to his throat Shocked by the attack I can feel her final words sear Leave and never come back Or I'll cut you ear to ear You can't see That I am free My life is mine, Not yours, so leave me be I'll set you free He said to me And I'll show you what your life could be I am free She said to me My life is mine, Not yours, so leave me be --- A Dream That Cannot Be - Doro and Amon Amarth
