《The River》歌词

[00:07:58] The River - Insomnium

[00:07:58] Old is my moon - Circle is complete

[00:07:58] Long has been the way - The day is giving in

[00:07:58] The dusk is thickening, cold engulfs the shore

[00:07:58] I hear across the stream as Charon blows the horn

[00:07:58] One more summer I ask for, I crave

[00:07:58] One more autumn just to finish my song

[00:07:58] Grant me this wish, bestow this gift

[00:07:58] Ye noble gods I pray

[00:07:58] When all is done, I'll go down with the sun

[00:07:58] And welcome the twilight that falls

[00:07:58] I know its in vain

[00:07:58] For it's my time

[00:07:58] There is no delay

[00:07:58] Last light will hide

[00:07:58] Hearken now to the trumpet call

[00:07:58] As it echoes in the dark (whirls through the night)

[00:07:58] Time has come to say the farewells

[00:07:58] Step down into the shades

[00:07:58] I scrape the sand that's running out, slipping away

[00:07:58] Dripping now through this weary hands

[00:07:58] Vanishing into thin air

[00:07:58] All I ask is one more day to redeem it all

[00:07:58] Then gladly I will pass and welcome the silent world

[00:07:58] With no sound, upon the calm stream

[00:07:58] The black boat moves, like mist on the waves

[00:07:58] Slowly Charon rows, slowly sky turns

[00:07:58] Stars fade away, we enter the shades

[00:07:58] But a wanderer I am on the heaths of night

[00:07:58] On this shore now ends my prolonged path

[00:07:58] I am home at last

[00:07:58] Tonight my dust is being gathered here

[00:07:58] And brought before my father

[00:07:58] Set before his throne, I am home at last
