For the Heart I Once Had

For The Heart I Once Had (我曾得到过的心) - Nightwish (夜愿)

Written by：Tuomas Holopainen

Heaven today is but a way

To a place I once called home

Heart of a child one final sigh

As another love goes cold

Once my heart beat to the

Rhythm of the falling snow

Blackened below the river now flows

A stream of molten virgin snow

For the heart I'll never have

For the child forever gone

The music flows because it longs

For the heart I once had

Living today without a way

To understand the weight of the world

Faded and torn old and forlorn

My weak and hoping heart

For the child for the light

For the heart I once had

I'll believe and foresee

Everything I could ever be

For the heart I'll never have

For the child forever gone

The music flows because it longs

For the heart I once had

Time will not heal a dead boy's scars

Time will kill

For the heart I'll never have

For the child forever gone

The music flows because it longs

For the heart I once had
