Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

"I was (1)________ (2)____________ the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed.
Dead to the world. Alive for the journey.
One night I dreamt a (3)__________ rose withering,
A newborn drowning a (4)________________ loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
And witnessed the (5)____________ of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I loved (6)________ (7)________ I'm gone?
Gone (8)________ in (9)________ to (10)__________ the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?
Why am I loved (11)________ (12)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one (13)________ time

I've (14)__________ felt so (15)__________ in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in this cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the (16)________ hand path

Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time
Think of me long enough to make a memory
Come (17)__________ the child one more time

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to (18)________ as I loved you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
Soon to be freed (19)________ care, from human pain.
My (20)________ is the most bitter truth:
Time (21)________ us but with earth & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence
The (22)__________ is (23)________ iron,
Hope is only an illusion
& (24)__________ Soul's nothing but a name...
The Child bless thee & (25)________ thee forever"
