歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The damask petals weep Secrets that I keep Tucked beneath the thorn Before the day is born I smooth the velvet red Where royal footsteps tread My ink is dark and deep While the palace is asleep [Pre-Chorus] The sundial’s face is cracked Time is turning back I watch the shadows crawl Along the garden wall The gilded gates are locked And my heavy heart is mocked [Chorus] In the center of the maze Lost in a velvet haze I wait behind the gate Testing the hands of fate But the twilight turns to grey As you turn your heart away My letters stay unknown Carved in the garden stone [Post-Chorus] Fragile and gold A story untold Fading in the cold [Verse] The glockenspiel rings clear But you are never near I hear the trumpet’s moan Chilled and all alone The bassoon’s heavy breath Sings of a quiet death Of every word I wrote In every hidden note [Pre-Chorus] The lantern flicker dies Beneath the heavy skies The parchment starts to fold In the damp and in the cold I count the dying light In the middle of the night [Chorus] In the center of the maze Lost in a velvet haze I wait behind the gate Testing the hands of fate But the twilight turns to grey As you turn your heart away My letters stay unknown Carved in the garden stone [Bridge] Blue silk and noble blood Lost in the rising flood Of a love that cannot be For a gardener like me I’ll bury every line Where the ivy starts to twine No one will ever see What you meant to me [Interlude] [Chorus] In the center of the maze Lost in a velvet haze I wait behind the gate Testing the hands of fate But the twilight turns to grey As you turn your heart away My letters stay unknown Carved in the garden stone [Post-Chorus] Fragile and gold A story untold Fading in the cold Waiting for a ghost Who forgot me the most [Outro]
