The Heart After Dark歌词

[00:02.63]The natives organize a welcoming feast.David feels that they have something that he has lost - some sense of hope for the future.
[00:15.56]He knows too much to regain his own innocence,but cannot help but envy the islanders,especially the young Anela and a young woman,Kohia.
[00:28.32]She is one of the dancers and captures everyone's eye with her grace.John's reaction is callous and calculating.
[00:34.35]He is the lonely lord of demise
[00:36.97]And knows what he wants
[00:39.84]He is the one you shun for a cause
[00:42.71]He feels no remorse
[00:45.59]Preying on everything that he sees
[00:48.20]He'll tear apart this tribe
[00:51.33]Now as his eyes are fixed on the lonely
[00:54.21]Maiden of this isle
[00:56.82]David: "I don't want to witness one more end
[01:02.57]I see in her and angel, a heavenly friend
[01:08.31]And that youth there? I was once like him
[01:13.80]I see in his eyes the fear of a soldier's whim"
[01:19.81]Anela: "she has my lonely heart
[01:22.42]She's bright like the morning star
[01:25.55]She makes my soul lighter than air"
[01:30.78]Oh, the pain and the greed
[01:34.44]The loss you won't believe
[01:36.79]The island is the heart of you and me
[01:41.75]The world will be ablaze
[01:44.36]And we're trapped in its maze
[01:46.45]What is the point to live and die
[01:51.51]If we knew we're living a lie?
[02:16.10]David: "I see her moving
[02:18.19]Round the pyre gracefully
[02:21.85]Like an ancient goddess beckoning me...
[02:27.59]I'd trade my life and my soul
[02:30.47]I'd give her all that I know
[02:33.34]She makes my heart shimmer and glow"
[02:38.56]Oh, the pain and the greed
[02:41.96]The loss you won't believe
[02:44.57]The island is the heart of you and me
[02:49.54]The world will be ablaze
[02:52.15]And we're trapped in its maze
[02:54.50]What is the point to live and die
[02:59.20]If we knew we're living a lie?
[03:32.65]__And oh yes, I see something___
[03:35.52]I'll take this heart
[03:38.13]In a flash of a shooting star
[03:41.00]There is no love greater than mine"
[03:46.23]Oh, the pain and the greed
[03:49.89]The loss you won't believe
[03:52.18]The island is the heart of you and me
[03:57.14]The world will be ablaze
[03:59.76]And we're trapped in its maze
[04:02.37]What is the point to live and die
[04:07.07]If we knew we're living a lie?
