Bless The Child (Live) by Nightwish

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

Where have all the feelings gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I (4)__________ only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless 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 long enough to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time

I've never felt so alone in my life
As I drank from a cup which was counting my time
There's a poison drop in this cup of Man
To (5)__________ it is to follow the left hand path

Why am I loved only when I'm gone?
Gone back in time to bless the child
Think of me long enough to (6)________ a memory
Come bless the child one more time
Think of me long (7)____________ to make a memory
Come bless the child one more time

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to love as I loved you?
Now unblessed, homesick in time,
Soon to be freed from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most (8)____________ truth:
Time pays us but with (9)__________ & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence
The cross is only iron,
Hope is (10)________ an illusion
& Ocean Soul's nothing but a name...
The Child bless thee & keep thee forever"
