Tarja Turunen - Boy and the Ghost lyrics

The streets are empty.

Inside it's warm.

His hands are shaking.

They locked the door.

A voice is calling asking to get in.

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a gentle heart

To lead him through the dark

When his dreams are running wild

Boy and the ghost

Fire's not burning

The lights went out

The lights went out

Big family dinner

The untold pain

Their eyes are sparkling on his frozen face.

Angel's calling asking to get in

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a gentle heart

To lead him through the dark

When there's nowhere left to fall.

Boy and the ghost

His eyes are burning

The lights went out

The dream is on.

Wake up, wake up:

There's an Angel in the snow.

Look up, look up:

It's a frightened dead boy

With so much hate, such bad dreams.

He could have seen

The toy's the key, but no one saw, no one saw

All he wanted was a toy

All he needed was a bleeding heart

To lead him through the dark

Boy and the ghost

Despero, solitas, debilis, desolo.

Despero, solitas, debilis, desolo.

When there's nowhere left to fall.

Nowhere to hide

The silence is hurting

Inside it's cold. Sleep or die.

Nowhere to go,

Nowhere to hide.

His light went out.
