Whirlwind - Sonata Arctica

Walking by my side

She leaned her head against my shoulder

Hand in hand the streets were even

Soon that day was over

The first day of the fall

I know there was no plan for us

But somehow it is easy to believe

A good thing will go on

Broken but alive

Missing a few pieces, I know

My remedy is time

But now I need a new hope to break this fall

I saw you stand on the pier one night

Drying teardrops in the wind

Walking away in the dark, leaving everything

Now you’re gone and the leaves of fall

Are dancing in the whirlwind

Like so many times

The way we seem to learn is to

Repeat and fall again

But will the falling make us stronger?

Waiting for the sun

Waiting for the stars and moon

Hiding in the darkness waiting

Mountain, please, come closer

I am still alive

Missing a few pieces, I know

My remedy is time

But now I need a new hope to break this fall

I saw her stand on the pier one night

Drying teardrops in the wind

Walking away in the dark, leaving everything

Now she’s gone, and the leaves of fall

Are dancing in the whirlwind

Now she’s gone and the fallen leaves

Are dancing in the whirlwind

I am still alive

Missing a few pieces, I know

My remedy, my time

But now I need a new hope to break this fall

I saw her stand on the pier one night

Drying teardrops in the wind

Walking away in the dark, leaving everything

Now she’s gone, and the fallen leaves

Are dancing in the whirlwind

I stand in the whirlwind

Life must deal me a better hand

Standing tall and the leaves of fall

Are dancing in the whirlwind

Twice upon a time alone

Under the diamond skies

The whirlwind and I

The fallen leaves still dance alone

After the wind has gone

When the whirlwind is gone

Winter’s veil, the leaves are gone

I see the snowflakes on the fields

So slowly dancing in the whirlwind

Spring, new life as winter’s gone

I see the new leaves on the tree

Soon they are dancing with the whirlwind
