Music by Luca Catalano
Lyrics by Wilma Collo
EARTH STEEPED IN SHADE, HOLDING ITS BREATH
AS HE SINGS THE SONG OF PARTING
NOTHING TO LOSE, NOTHING MORE TO FEAR
EVERYTHING DISSOLVING BEFORE HIM
BETWEEN THE WOOD AND THE DRY LAND
HE POURS OUT HIS FAREWELL TO LOVE AND TO LIGHT
UNTIL HER VOICE RESPONDS FROM THE FOREST
AND, UNEXPECTED, SHE APPEARS
IN RAIMENT OF PERVERSION
HIDING HER TRUE FORM
A VAMPIRE’S LIKENESS, HORRIFIC SIGHT
AN ENSNARING PHANTOM
IN HIS EYES VEILED BY DAYS OF GRIEVING
BUT, LOOK, HER DISGUISE IS FALLING
AND THEY FACE EACH OTHER
CAST ALL OF YOUR DOUBTS AWAY
NOW THAT SHE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU
BURSTING EXULTANCE WILL LIGHT UP YOUR NIGHT
CAST OF ALL YOUR DOUBTS AWAY
NOW THAT SHE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU
BURSTING EXULTANCE WILL LIGHT UP YOUR NIGHT
THE FINAL VOW IS SPOKEN, THERE IS NO TURNING BACK
ABOVE THE WAYS OF MORTALS, ALONG THE UNBEATEN TRACK
THE FINAL VOW IS SPOKEN, THERE IS NO TURNING BACK
ABOVE THE WAYS OF MORTALS, ALONG THE UNBEATEN TRACK
CAST ALL OF YOUR DOUBTS AWAY
NOW THAT SHE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU
BURSTING EXULTANCE WILL LIGHT UP YOUR NIGHT
CAST OF ALL YOUR DOUBTS AWAY
NOW THAT SHE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU
BURSTING EXULTANCE WILL LIGHT UP YOUR NIGHT
CAST OF ALL YOUR DOUBTS AWAY
NOW THAT SHE IS STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU
BURSTING EXULTANCE WILL LIGHT UP YOUR NIGHT
CHALLENGING THE FATE BEFORE HER, WITHOUT HOPE OR CERTAINTY
PAYING FOR THE PRICE OF CHOOSING, COME WHAT MAY SHE WON’T STRAY
SHE’LL TAKE YOUR HAND ON THE WAVE OF THE SUNRISE,
AND HER PAST IS ONLY A FISTFUL OF DUST
ALL LEFT BEHIND, BEHIND HER BACK FOREVER
