Within Temptation - Hydra Lyric Book

Covered by Roses

I feel my heart explode to particles.

Love is always here and I told you so.

Restless in dreams, love carved in stone

This rhapsody of life in a way, I guess, we all know it.

Hand in hand we stand while we watch it flow

Heaven can you help us, no we can't go.

Covered by roses

When this dance is over

We all know our beauty will die.

The choirs have awoken

Left no words unspoken

Remember you as long as I can

Hold you in my arms all night

And spill the wine until the end

We all have our place in time,

Need to live every moment

We built our castles high, turned our dreams to gold.

We took the blows with pride, went through it all.

The dawn is closing in, new tales are told.

This rhapsody of life in a way, I guess, we all know.

Covered by roses

When this dance is over

We all know our beauty will die.

The choirs have awoken

Left no words unspoken

Remember you as long as I can

Hold you in my arms all night

And spill the wine until the end

We all have our place in time,

Need to live every moment

For all we are is falling stars in the night

A blinding light raging down from the sky

The rise and fall, the rhapsody of our lives

It's all we know, we've got to let go

[Spoken:]

She dwells with beauty, beauty that must die.

And joy, whose hand is ever at his lips.

His soul shall taste the sadness of her might

And be among her cloudy trophies hung.

Covered by roses

When this dance is over

We all know our beauty will die.

The choirs have awoken

Left no words unspoken

Remember you as long as I can

Hold you in my arms all night

And spill the wine until the end

We all have our place in time,

Need to live every moment
