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 dreamt a white rose withering,
A newborn drowning a lifetime loneliness.
I dreamt all my future. Relived my past.
And witnessed the beauty of the beast"

Where (2)________ all the (3)________________ gone?
Why has all the laughter ceased?
Why am I loved (4)________ when I'm gone?
Gone (5)________ in time to bless the child

How can I (6)________ feel again?
Given the (7)____________ would I return?
Why am I loved (8)________ 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 (9)__________ was counting my time
There's a (10)____________ drop in this cup of Man
To (11)__________ it is to follow the left (12)________ path

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

"Where have all the feelings gone?
Why is the deadliest sin - to (18)________ as I loved you?
Now unblessed, (19)________________ in time,
Soon to be (20)__________ from care, from human pain.
My tale is the most bitter truth:
Time pays us but with earth & dust,
And a dark, silent grave.
Remember, my child: Without innocence
The cross is only iron,
Hope is only an illusion
& (21)__________ Soul's nothing but a name...
The (22)__________ bless thee & (23)________ thee forever"
