This hallowed ground A shallow grave to which we stumble Time is the nemesis of man We are eternal in this afterlife Just moon-kissed shadows laced with sand A love spurned brought an end to my world For a thousand years But ‘love-lost’ I returned Now I yearn for light Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Edified Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Deified Alone in the dark tonight These marbled alabaster Angels parch and crumble The carved inscriptions fade unread I walk the night shade scented paradise This garden of the nameless dead A love spurned brought an end to my world For a thousand years But ‘love-lost’ I returned Now I yearn for light Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Edified Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Deified Alone in the dark tonight Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Edified Alone in the dark tonight Tonight Deified Alone in the dark tonight (Tonight) (Edified) (Alone in the dark tonight) (Tonight) (Deified) Alone in the dark tonight
