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 (1)__________ rose withering,
A newborn (2)________________ a lifetime loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
And witnessed the beauty of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I loved (3)________ (4)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in time to (5)__________ the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to (6)__________ the child
Think of me long (7)____________ to make a memory
Come bless the child one (8)________ time

I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in (9)________ cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the (10)________ (11)________ 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 (12)__________ the child one more time
Think of me (13)________ enough to make a memory
Come bless the (14)__________ one more time

"Where have all the (15)________________ gone?
Why is the (16)__________________ sin - to (17)________ as I loved you?
Now unblessed, (18)________________ in time,
Soon to be freed from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time pays us but (19)________ (20)__________ & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my (21)____________ Without innocence
The (22)__________ is only iron,
Hope is only an illusion
& (23)__________ Soul's (24)______________ but a name...
The (25)__________ (26)__________ (27)________ & keep thee forever"
