The Ruins Of My Life

The Land was then young, I was fighting for it like everyone

Ready to die for the cause, for my King, for my Lord



You were my reason to live, to fight another day

You were the only one for me, and you were only for me



Another year I would be gone

The war was leading us so far apart

I built a house to keep you there

Waiting for me, waiting?



No-one remembers my face nor my name

In a dream, I´d stay here forever

Headstone on my grave, words carved in vain

All these wounds only heal when I´m home



The Taste of their blood in my mouth, and the scent of victory

Scarred my soul for life, This man was not me



Love is a game for the weak to play, they said

I loved and love made me many times stronger



Another year I would be gone

The war was leading us so far apart

I built a house to keep you there

Waiting for me, waiting?



No-one remembers my face nor my name

In a dream, I´d stay here forever

Headstone on my grave, words carved in vain

All these wounds only heal when I´m home



Everything ends...everything dies...

Now I know the Legends only lived in his lies.?



My Long and winding road, river and trees by the hills we lived on

The ruins of my life I find, a signetring on the ashes,

I know my Lord betrayed me, my reason to live was taken away

I carry my loved one to the hills we loved, for the last time?



I close your eyes, kiss you goodbye

The only one who ever loved me

I´m crushed inside, darling, my life?

It shall end here?



Headstone on your grave, words carved in vain

Now the darkness covers me?
