Poets of the Fall • Given And Denied

Which way to the fountain of my youth I wonder?
Which way to the years I let go by?
Let a thirsty man drink in its memories
While the water still flows sweet and crystal clear for yesteryear

Oh to see the sun's eclipse on the horizon like ships
Sailing way away from here, oh just one more time my dear
Before I go hear me out, 'cause of this there ain't no doubt
When it's time for curtain call just before the shadows fall

Like a leaf in the wind on the ocean of blue
Like your eyes in the twilight theater
With symphonies playing in a world without sound
We're given and denied

Give me back my innocence 'cause I wish to dream again
Like I never outgrew my old playground
Where the sun sets slowly with a golden crown
And the leaves sing lullabies 'round vacant swings
Give me those wings

Let me fly once again like I did way back when
I would gamble and win to lift me high above the din
Of the future we see, does it hold something for me?
I'm weightless again just before the shadows fall
