The Palace Ball

Light of moon is falling Through the evening curtains Glittering when finding jewels, gold and all Strolling in excesses Fancy suit's and dresses Raising our glasses to the palace ball Follow me Johanna, join me in a toast Not so fast, Helena where is our host? Over there, I see him, elegance and pride Let us go to greet him, look into his eyes Enchanting, yes, it is, to meet Madame again Allow me now to kiss your tender little hand Such an honor, Caesar To kneel here at your feet Next to me, my sister, I wish for you to meet This must be Johanna Your eyes do mine entrance May I have the pleasure to offer you a dance? Like wings you cross the air of our tune As night birds do when tides obey the moon Deeper is your soul than a waterfall Drowning in your memory of God To dance among the somber shadows, pain Shall be the drying sun of every rain What have you to show? Powers from below Powers that are dangling from a string Light and darkness are the chords we play Two melodies will find a common way Listen I will not to this evil plot Caesar, so I thank you for this dance Light of moon is falling Through the evening curtains Glittering when finding jewels, gold and all Silence is unbroken, a million words unspoken Sleeping ghosts awoken at the palace ball At the palace ball --- The Palace Ball - Therion
