The Maiden and the Moon Lyrics


Far are the mountains

where my steps have gone

but the sound of your voice

burns deep in my soul



Long is the way that

I've walked from home

but just call my name

you won't be alone



I'll return to you, beloved one

I will find you in my dreams

I'll return to you, beloved one

I will find you in my dreams



Sweet are your words

but my heart knows the truth

you wanted to go

you sailed to the moon



You'll never reach

what you seek like a fool

and I'll cry because

I'm still loving you



I will wait for you, beloved one

Through the years I won't forget

By uncertain dreams I've been betrayed

For my loss the moon I blame



Who am I?

I can't tell

Broken mirrors

shrouded faces

Where does my

fate lead to?

will I ever find

my place?



No! What have I done?

Burnt my ships into

the truth of my soul

And now I can never turn back



Love! Where have you gone?

Tears frozen into my bones

Wizened each kiss for my lost bard



The wind on her skin

the hair like a veil

the moon in the sky

is laughing at her



The maiden looks at

her rival's pale face

the cradle of dreams

has stolen her days



And she jumps smiling to her fate

down the cliff she sails away

And so far, the lost bard tries to sleep

and forgets his maiden's end



Now, young one, be wise

and remember my tale

to follow your dreams

a price must be paid
