Blind Guardian

Mr. Sandman
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Make her cutest that I've ever seen
Give her two lips like roses in clover
Then tell her that her lonesome nights are over

Mister Sandman, I'm so alone
Don't have nobody to call my own
Please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman, bring me a dream

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream
Make her cutest that I've ever seen
Give her the word that I'm not a rover
Then tell her that her lonesome nights are over

Give her a pair of eyes with a congeal of gleam
Give her a lonely heart like Harlehatschi
And not so wavy hair like Liberachi

Mister Sandman, someone to hold
Would be so peachy before we're to old
So please turn on your magic beam
Mister Sandman, brings us please
Mister Sandman, bring us a dream

Bright Eyes
Fool just another
I've been waiting
For signs of God
Create - enslave - behaved
Everything is out of control

Leave me alone isolation bears hope
There's something else waiting
A promised destiny freezing me
I feel restless and low
These days full of sadness
How joyfully changed into fear
My freak show will start tonight
Don't miss the right time

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
No Merlin is by my side

Everything is out of control
In my future plans
Everything is out of control
No one's left to hurt
Everything is out of control
Sorrow's gone away

Broken memories
Walking upstairs step by step
I see the whole world burning
The poet dies in Newerland
How it burns

Hey, mother stubborn
I really hate you
If you say: Yes, I will say: No
Ashes to ashes
But dust won't be dust
If you go there I will go back

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
Betrayed by sunrise

Hey, father stubborn
You're ying and I'm young, I feel alone
Who really cares born into ashes
To lose all the games
With a smiling face

Bright eyes
Blinded by fear of life
And the dark dragons rise

So I sit still in my room today
Winter's here in summer season
Shall I say, I was wrong
If I'm right farewell to my last hope

Hallelujah
I am a preacher with a message for my people
Over the world scratching on the ground
Looking for the peace that nobody has found

I am a spokesman for a better way of living
Love is the word and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung
Let me hear you sing: Hallelujah

Oh, tell it to the man
Who's power is the sermon on the wall
Tell it to the man
Who says you can misjudge them all

Tell it till it can be heard
Above the wailing of the crowd
Tell it on the field of war
And hope you'll soon be justified

There is a better way of life
And it's not so hard to find
If you live and let the people
In your world speak it's mind

I am the pupil who sells his life for freedom
All over the world and it can be heard
If you are young the message can be sung:
Hallelujah

Imaginations From The Other Side
Where are these silent faces
I took them all
They all went away
Now you're alone
To turn out every light so deep in me
Hold on too late

Will I ever see them back again
Or did they all die by my hand
Or were they killed
By the old evil ghost who had taken
The ocean of all my dreams
Which were worth to keep
Deep inside my heart
I wish I could get them back
From the ever flow
Before they'll fade away

Imaginations from the other side
Far out of nowhere it got back to my mind
Out of the dark, back to the light
Then I'll break down
The walls around my heart
Imaginations from the other side

Where's the Ocean's Daughter
Was Peter Pan in Mordor
No one's there to keep alive
All these fairy tales
May I return to Oz
Will I meet the Tin Man

Coward Lion where are you
Without brain the Scarecrow's lost
In the middle of the lake
Stranded in the real world
Left in the world
No place for daydreams
Serious life
I fall into a dark hole
And I can't come out

Do you know if Merlin did exist
Or Frodo wore the ring
Did Corum kill the gods
Or where's the Wonderland
Which young Alice had seen
Or was it just a dream
I knew the answers
Now they're lost for me

I hope there is a way back
With my talisman so I look into myself
Into the days when I was just a child

Come follow me to Wonderland
And see the tale that never ends
Don't fear the Lion nor the Witch
I can't come back, I'm lost but still I know
There is another world

The Script For My Requiem
Hallowed be the fatherland
God he knows
How long I'd been away
From here I did start for the search
So full of disease
I still hear my cry out
From the old cellar's inside

Born in the days of medieval
My inner voice is always asking why

I came from nowhere
Without a task, without a name
No fear of evil fate
So God please lead me
Through forgotten realms
Mysterious dreams
In sunless rooms I'd sworn
I'll finish that I started, once
I'll find my Holy Grail in the Holy Land

Returning of the miracles
It's my own requiem
The jester's tears they are inside me
Agony's the script for my requiem

Returning of the miracles
It's my own requiem
Is the script already written
Jester's tears I cry - yes, I cry

I went out of my mind in desert lands
Insanity's pawn out of control
Much too long I've been isolated
From my thoughts
Enclosed by the leader's spell
Bewildered to march
As a glory knight and I tried

Still I hear the scream of thousands:
Crucify! Crucify! Take it all
Our gold, our homes, our life
But we didn't kill your Christ!
Reach out for your Holy Grail
Enslave us and make us
Your God's sacrifice!

Still I'm confused
If I was dreaming
Too late I realized
I'd been another fool
I pay the price
