Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

"I was (1)________ 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 (2)______________ drowning 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)________ when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?
Why am I loved only (4)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to (5)________ a memory
Come bless the child one more time

I've never (6)________ so (7)__________ in my life
As I (8)__________ (9)________ a cup which was (10)________________ my time
There's a (11)____________ drop in this cup of Man
To drink it is to follow the left hand path

Why am I loved (12)________ (13)________ 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 bless the (14)__________ one more time

"Where have all the (15)________________ gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to (16)________ as I loved you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
Soon to be (17)__________ from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time (18)________ us but (19)________ (20)__________ & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: (21)______________ innocence
The cross is (22)________ iron,
Hope is only an illusion
& Ocean Soul's (23)______________ but a name...
The Child bless thee & (24)________ thee forever"
