1. A Dying Dream
[Music by: Macbeth]
2. Sweet Endless Sleep
[Lyrics by: Vittorio Manara / Music by: Macbeth]
Like a spell from which i
can't awake now i sleep
soundly,
dying in your arms, i felt
your tears glide on my face
and your hands hold mine
for the last time,
the angel of mystery is
here to lead me in the king-
dom of silence.
We are immersed in a
boundless sea of sorrow
death is the darkened hori-
zon we'll reach in our
wreck,
sweet is my rest like a kiss
of the woman i loved
and now her heart is veiled
with a cloud of sadness.
You'll close my weary
eyes languishing and resi-
gned and petals of withered
roses will settle on my
weak body as tears
i'll rove forever on the
banks of the oblivion's river
bur i'll hear your mounded
heart cry for me.
"..and my tears will furrow my
cheeks and will rush in the
endless ebony abyss of
torment."
3. Shadows Of Eden
[Lyrics by: Vittorio Manara / Music by: Macbeth]
Shadows are walking in
the darkness of a promised
heaven
like spirits in a dark and
lonely castle,
they are dancing at a song
of a myriad of voices
with the stares lost in a
secret dimension.
Shadows are crying in the
immensity of a gloomy
night,
holding in their own all
their consuming sorrow
They seem forgotten in the
heavenly garden,
forsaken in the misery of a
place without time.
"Abd shines the light of hope
in their eyes no more and no
emotion will pass through
their heart"
Shadows imprisoned
between dream and reality
in silently wait for a
solemn recall,
they look for consolation in
the pale light of god,
in a kingdom in which all
is eternal.
4. Eternity Silence
[Music by: Macbeth]
5. Nocturnal Embrace
[Lyrics by: Vittorio Manara / Music by: Macbeth]
Light is disappearing, dark
is closing in upon me,
In front of my eyes a
new sunset,
another day is dying
between my arms
and the night rises
caressing my face.
A nocturnal embrace holds
me to itself
like two lovers, escaping
from glances
Lost in the darkness,
surrounded by silence,
through the oceans of time,
we'll fly away.
And the stars in the sky
will look us
while the wind will blow
among the last leaves,
my soul will dance lighted
by a pale moon and an
overture will accompany
my steps.
