By the ruins he stands
And he's waiting for me
To enter Tanelorn
His paths seems strange
But they're always planned
Seldom he succeeds
About his own fate
He tries to conquer it
Again and again
But at last he's almost
A ruined man
Not a king or God
Who's searching for
A place called Tanelorn
Far beyond your dreams
Ref.:
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
He's waiting
He's waiting for me
He's waiting
He's waiting for me
[Spiritus sanctus - vita aeterna]
Darkness falling down on me
Darkness - The eternal battle rises
I know the answers
Although they don't exist
I'm just a mortal illusion
Ref.
(Solo)
So I'm his companion
Through space and through time
His eternal servant
He's calling me
So I must leave
To any life
To another world
Far beyond Your dreams
To know the truth
Just for a while
He's longing for a place
Where he can find himself
Deliverance
It could be everywhere
How can he find
He's waiting for me
And for Your Tanelorn
Ref.:
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
We're left aloneGotta do what I gotta do
Do what I gotta do
Cause cash rules everything around me
If you take a look around
Take a look at was goin' down
If you can see what I see, baby
And why act the way I do
Cause you can't understand
And you don't really know a man
Until you've been where I've been
Loose the things I've lost
But can you change the way that you look at me
All that you can say to me
the things I just can say no more
I'm not the same guy that I used to be
We don't even talk no more
Don't I get up everyday
Don't I bring home all my pay
Don't I do whatever it takes
If I could just get my baby out tha ghetto
Gotta do what I gotta do
Move when it's time to move
See who I gotta see
Cause cash rules everything around me
Do what I gotta do
Be who I gotta be
But it's not enough for you
Cause we can live without enough money
She is afraid to get involved
She ain't willin to fall in love
It's such a risk to take and a big mistake
By the way I make my livin'
But I let you know from the go
That's the way it is
And that's the way it goes
It's the only life I know
But you can't do nuthing to change that baby
All that you can say to me
the things I just can say no more
I'm not the same guy that I used to be
We don't even talk no more
Don't I get up everyday
Don't I bring home all my pay
Don't I do whatever it takes
If I could just get my baby out tha ghetto
Gotta do what I gotta do
Move when it's time to move
See who I gotta see
Cause cash rules everything around me
Do what I gotta do
Be who I gotta be
But it's not enough for you
Cause we can live without enough money
Gotta do what I gotta do
Move when it's time to move
See who I gotta see
Cause cash rules everything around me
Do what I gotta do
Be who I gotta be
But it's not enough for you
Cause we can live without
