There Was A Life - Trans-Siberian Orchestra[00:00:00]

There was a life[00:00:16]

Was there before[00:00:20]

But somehow here upon this night[00:00:23]

It now means more[00:00:27]

And all those words[00:00:30]

She tried to say[00:00:34]

I've now forgotten[00:00:37]

Or they've somehow slipped away[00:00:39]

And in this darkness[00:00:44]

Is there salvation[00:00:47]

Is there forgiveness[00:00:51]

For hesitation[00:00:54]

Can someone tell me[00:00:58]

Can someone say when[00:01:01]

The writer of this story[00:01:05]

Will just tell us how it all will end[00:01:08]

And somewhere on this night[00:01:20]

There's a wave on the ocean[00:01:26]

That crashes on shores[00:01:30]

Where no one can see[00:01:33]

The tides and the currents[00:01:36]

Decide every motion[00:01:39]

From where they are now[00:01:42]

To where they will be[00:01:45]

It cradles them all[00:01:48]

For they all are it's children[00:01:50]

If one drop disappears[00:01:53]

It is instantly missed[00:01:56]

And after each wave[00:02:00]

Has joined up with the shoreline[00:02:02]

It returns to the sea[00:02:06]

For that is it's one wish[00:02:10]

There was a light[00:02:23]

Was there before[00:02:26]

But in the darkness of this night[00:02:30]

It now means more[00:02:34]

To be so close[00:02:37]

To be so near[00:02:40]

To see the water there within[00:02:44]

A young child's tear[00:02:47]

And in our blindness[00:02:50]

Do we move onward[00:02:54]

And cling to the lies[00:02:58]

That we have harbored[00:03:01]

We could not admit[00:03:04]

We were mistaken[00:03:08]

But if we don't do it now[00:03:12]

Dear God could you please come[00:03:15]

Down here[00:03:17]

And tell me when[00:03:18]

And somewhere on this night[00:03:26]

There's a wave on the ocean[00:03:31]

That crashes on shores[00:03:35]

Where no one can see[00:03:38]

The tides and the currents[00:03:41]

Decide every motion[00:03:44]

From where they are now[00:03:47]

To where they will be[00:03:50]

It cradles them all[00:03:53]

For they all are it's children[00:03:55]

If one drop disappears[00:03:59]

It is instantly missed[00:04:02]

And after each wave[00:04:05]

Has joined up with the shoreline[00:04:07]

It returns to the sea[00:04:11]

For that is it's one wish[00:04:16]

In the dead of the night[00:04:42]

Tell me what do you see[00:04:44]

Will you close your eyes child[00:04:47]

And just listen to me[00:04:50]

And remember this now[00:04:53]

Hear these words that I say[00:04:55]

As your story appears[00:04:58]

At the end of the day[00:05:01]

For my meeting with death[00:05:04]

Though it has been delayed[00:05:07]

I have run my hands over[00:05:09]

The end of his blade[00:05:13]

Though the cut wasn't fatal[00:05:15]

Even though it was deep[00:05:18]

Well that wound's never healed[00:05:21]

And the blood it still seeps[00:05:25]

Are you scared of your life[00:05:49]

Are you scared of your death[00:05:51]

Though that day will arrive[00:05:54]

Well it hasn't come yet[00:05:57]

For the days turn to months[00:06:00]

And the months turn to years[00:06:03]

As I see them all now[00:06:05]

Through a prism of tears[00:06:08]

But don't fear tomorrow[00:06:11]

And don't fear the night[00:06:14]

It's where God repairs sorrows[00:06:17]

That enter your life[00:06:20]

The remains of your life[00:06:22]

The remains of the day[00:06:25]

Well protect every hour[00:06:28]

Don't give them away[00:06:31]

For each evening we sleep[00:06:33]

And each morning we arise[00:06:36]

But you're not the same man[00:06:39]

That's the way it's devised[00:06:42]

For there're parts of yourself[00:06:45]

The soul decides to keep[00:06:47]

And there're parts of yourself[00:06:50]

That the soul does release[00:06:53]

With some changes so small[00:06:56]

That they cannot be seen[00:06:59]

But death is like sleep[00:07:02]

With a longer dream[00:07:06]

Are you scared of your life[00:07:30]

Are you scared of your death[00:07:32]

Though that day will arrive[00:07:35]

Well it hasn't come yet[00:07:38]

As for all those mistakes[00:07:41]

That you've made in your life[00:07:43]

Must they stay as they are[00:07:46]

Or can we make them right[00:07:49]

On this night take my hand[00:07:52]

Keep me near keep me close[00:07:54]

And if I should die first[00:07:57]

Could I not be your ghost[00:08:00]

But if later in life[00:08:03]

We should happen to meet[00:08:06]

Would you keep me so near[00:08:08]

You could hear my heartbeat[00:08:12]

There are reasons to live[00:08:14]

There are reasons to die[00:08:17]

But the end's not the end[00:08:20]

While you're still alive[00:08:25]

Alive[00:08:31]

Alive[00:08:37]

While you're still a [00:08:59]

There was a life[00:09:09]

Was there before[00:09:14]
