Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

"I was born amidst the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed.
Dead to the world. Alive for the journey.
One night I dreamt a white rose withering,
A newborn (1)________________ a lifetime loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
And (2)__________________ the (3)____________ of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I (4)__________ only when I'm gone?
Gone back in (5)________ to (6)__________ the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone (7)________ in time to bless the child
Think of me long (8)____________ to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time

I've never (9)________ so alone in my life
As I (10)__________ from a cup (11)__________ was (12)________________ my time
There's a poison (13)________ in (14)________ cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the left (15)________ path

Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone (16)________ 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 (17)____________ to make a memory
Come (18)__________ the (19)__________ one more time

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