Blind Guardian - The Quest for Tanelorn Lyrics

By the ruins he stands
And he's waiting for me
To enter Tanelorn
His paths seem strange
But they're always planned
Seldom he succeeds
About his own fate

He tries to conquer it
Again and again
But at last he's almost a ruined man
Not a king or God
Who's searching for a place called Tanelorn
Far beyond your dreams

On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn
He's waiting (waiting for me)
He's waiting (waiting for me)

Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna
Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna
Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna
Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna
Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna
Spiritus sanctus, vita aeterna

Darkness falling down on me
Darkness, the eternal battle rises

I know the answers
Although they don't exist
I'm just a mortal illusion

On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn

So I'm his companion
Through space and through time
His eternal servant
He's calling me
So I must leave
To another life
To another world
Far beyond your dreams

To know the truth just for a while
He's longing for a place where he can find himself
Deliverance, it could be everywhere
How can he find-, he is waiting for me and for you
Tanelorn

On our quest for Tanelorn
We lose our way
On our quest for Tanelorn (Tanelorn)
We lose our way (we lose our way)
On our quest for Tanelorn (Tanelorn)
We lose our way (we lose our way)
On our quest from Tanelorn
And we left alone
