Dead Gardens Lyrics - Once - Nightwish

The story behind the painting I drew is already told 

No more tearstains on the pages of my diary 

Tired but unable to give up since I'm 

Responsible for the lives I saved 

The play is done 

(The play is done) 

The curtain's down 

All the tales are told 

All the orchids gone 

Lost in my own world 

Now I care for dead gardens

My song is little worth anymore 

Time to lay this weary pen aside 

The play is done 

(The play is done) 

The curtain's down 

"Where are the wolves, the underwater moon 

The elvenpath, the haven of youth 

Lagoons of the starlit sea 

Have I felt enough for one man's deed? 

Or is it time to challenge the Ancient of Days 

And let the virgin conceive" 

All the tales are told 

All the orchids gone 

Photos 

All the tales are told 

All the orchids gone 

Lost in my own world 

Now I care for dead gardens
