Blind Guardian
When Sorrow Sang
[Verse 1]
So let me out of it
Out of the cold
To bring back light and hope for all
And so if I could get you in just for a little while
Into the songs of sorrow you might understand

Where am I now?
Beyond the dawn
Hope's turned to dust
At all

[Pre-Chorus]
Immortal love's
Fooled by the hands of doom
That love means death
I realized too soon

[Chorus]
Caught in the afterlife I've gone too far
When sorrow sang softly and sweet
The air was filled with tears full of sadness and grief
When sorrow sang softly and sweet

[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
I feel like screaming
I can't breath in
Shall I wane right now?
I will not leave this world of living
Till she said goodbye

[Verse 3]
Out in the cold
I still wait for her call
And her last kiss
It shall be release
I can't forget her
Her face will not leave
From the depths of my soul I long for her

[Chorus]
Caught in the afterlife I've gone to far
When sorrow sang softly and sweet
The air was filled with tears full of sadness and grief
When sorrow sang softly and sweet

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
So I heard all about it
Her voice's so clear
She's woven both themes in there
Moved me to tears
The world shall hear this sad song
Song of sorrow, song of grief
Can't change the way of his kind
Can't change the way of her kind
[Chorus]
Caught in the afterlife I've gone to far
When sorrow sang softly and sweet
The air was filled with tears full of sadness and grief
When sorrow sang softly and sweet
