Stratovarius - The Kiss Of Judas
I hear footsteps closing in
Recognizing them from my early days
The times are different, the image remains the same
Repeating backflashes, remembering the name
Approaching visions of things
I can't recall
A familiar smile awakes the pain
Unkept promises
The night awaits
The act of confidence
The kiss of Judas
I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas
Haunts me once again
In your private chamber you're all alone
The well earned silver pieces falling to the floor
The flame of the candle casting movement to the wall
Your eyes filled with guilt, keep staring at the door
Approaching visions of things
I can't recall
A familiar smile awakes the pain
Unkept promises
The night awaits
The act of confidence
The kiss of Judas
I feel the lips on my cheek
The kiss of Judas
Haunts me once again

.............................................
Stratovarius - Black Diamond
Again I see you standing there watching me
Your gaze, those eyes are tantalizing openly
Inviting me to get close to you,
can't help myself
There's fascination in the air
I try to fight this strong sensation
But there's no chance to escape
From this temptation
Feels like I've known you before
Repeating phrases
But I yearn for something more
I know I can't stay by your side forever
But I know I won't forget your beauty
My Black Diamond

Stratovarius - Forever Free
They try to give me answers
To questions I've never asked
I'll have no part in their conspiracy
I guess I am the kind of
Guy that will never stray
The thing I need is privacy
Some guiding, depriving
Misleading and combining
They're watching our every move
They can try to bind our arms
But they can't chain our minds or hearts
We will keep our faith inside our souls
And never let it go - we are forever free
You see them making headlines
New pictures tell old stories
Explaining what they have said and done
Media's new illusion
Creating more confusion
But I know that they'll soon be gone
Some guiding, depriving
Misleading and combining
They're watching our every move
They can try to bind our arms
But they can't chain our minds or hearts
We will keep our faith inside our souls
And never let it go - we are forever free

Stratovarius - Before the Winter
Before the summer turns to winter
Before the dreams will turn to snow
I see the yellow leaves are falling
And soon I know I have to go
But I'll be back before the summer
Next year you're in my arms again
The winter breeze will send my message
It will keep you warm until then
The path to home is long and winding
I'll keep the flame alive for you until I am back
You and I will walk that road together
I'll show that all the dreams are true
If you only let them be before the winter

Stratovarius - Legions
Far in the core of the earth
First it was given birth
We heard the call, the message was so clear
The tracks were laid for the future to come
Sons and daughters of the rising sun
The armies in Europe here we come
We run like the wind, we play from the heart
Now we are here, together we sing
Faster than light, higher than the sky
Tonight we're together again
Never give up and never give in
Stronger than steel, we're the legions of the twilight
We survived the hard times
Never accepted the lies
You run like the wind, you sing from the heart
Now that we're here together we'll sing
Faster than light, higher than the sky
Tonight we're together again
Never give up and never give in
Stronger than steel, we're the legions of the twilight
When we have to go back home again
We'll keep the mem'ries we gained inside our hearts
Faster than light, higher than the sky
Tonight we're together again
Never give up and never give in
Stronger than steel, we're the legions of the twilight
Raise your hands for us!

......................................................
Stratovarius - The Abyss of your Eyes
I feel like I'm drowning
Trying to catch my breath
Don't know what is happening
There's no sense of time
Deep underneath my skin
Feeling the pain within hear my cry
I feel drown towards you can't resist
I don't know why
My life is changing I cannot recall
Where I've been before - the abyss of your eyes
Meaning so much more am I losing my mind
The sun isn't shine
But your eyes light my way
I've found what I've been searching for
My love won't go astray
Deep underneath my skin
Feeling the pain within hear my cry
I feel drown towards you can't resist
I don't know why
My life is changing I cannot recall
Where I've been before - the abyss of your eyes
Meaning so much more am I lost
So many years my drifting heart has wandered around
Don't turn on me, won't you stay by my side
Where I've been before - the abyss of your eyes
Meaning so much more... Am I losing my mind

Late at night i find myself again
Wondering and watching TV
I cant believe what is on the screen
Something that i wouldnt care to see
Many rare species will parish soon
And we will be short on food
Why do we have to be so selfish?
We've got to change our attitude
I know, that i am not
The only one thats worried
Why dont we all wake up, and, realize
Like the birds in the sky
We are flying so high
Without making any kind of sacrifice
Weve got so little time
To undo all this crime, or we'll lose our paradise
It seems to me that theres no sense at all
nobody cares its always the same
Mother natures crying out in pain
We are the ones to blame
I know, that i am not
The only one thats worried
Why dont we all wake up, and, realize
Like the birds in the sky
We are flying so high
Without making any kind of sacrifice
Weve got so little time
To undo all this crime, or we'll lose our paradise
Like the birds in the sky
We are flying so high
Without making any kind of sacrifice
Weve got so little time
To undo all this crime, or we'll lose our paradise
Like the birds in the sky
We are flying so high
Without making any kind of sacrifice
Weve got so little time
To undo all this crime, or we'll lose our paradise
Like the birds in the sky
We are flying so high
Weve got so little time
To undo all this crime, or we'll lose our paradise
ohhhhhhhh so highhhhhh

Stratovarius - Coming Home
I wake up in the morning
So far away from home
Trying to make it through the day
Many miles are between us
I'm sending my love
From this payphone
Through the storms we've wandered
Many mountains we have climbed
But all the bad times are behind
The road is free - I'm coming home
Without you I am like
A ship without its sails
Calling the wind to save me
I'd climb the highest mountain
I'd cross the seven seas
Just to see your smile again
All the trust that was built along the years
Is coming back to stay, I know
Just look ahead the road is free
I'm coming home
With every step I'm closer to home
When I'm back you won't be alone
Soon I see the familiar door before my eyes
And you, oh...
