Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

"I was born (1)____________ the purple waterfalls.
I was weak, yet not unblessed.
Dead to the world. Alive for the journey.
One night I (2)____________ a white rose withering,
A newborn drowning a (3)________________ loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
And witnessed the (4)____________ of the beast"

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to (5)__________ the child

How can I ever feel again?
Given the chance would I return?
Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me (6)________ enough to (7)________ a memory
Come bless the child one more time

I've (8)__________ felt so alone in my life
As I drank (9)________ a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison (10)________ in this cup of Man
To (11)__________ it is to (12)____________ the left hand path

Why am I (13)__________ only (14)________ I'm gone?
Gone back in (15)________ to (16)__________ the child
Think of me long (17)____________ to (18)________ a memory
Come (19)__________ the child one more time
Think of me long (20)____________ to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the (21)__________________ sin - to love as I (22)__________ you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
Soon to be freed from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time (23)________ us but with earth & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence
The cross is (24)________ iron,
Hope is (25)________ an illusion
& Ocean Soul's nothing but a name...
The Child (26)__________ thee & keep thee forever"
