By the ruins he stands   And he's waiting for me   To enter Tanelorn   His paths seems 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      Ref.:   On our quest for Tanelorn   We lose our way   On our quest for Tanelorn      He's waiting    He's waiting for me   He's waiting   He's waiting for me      [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      Ref.      (Solo)      So I'm his companion   Through space and through time   His eternal servant   He's calling me    So I must leave   To any 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's waiting for me   And for Your Tanelorn      Ref.:   On our quest for Tanelorn   We lose our way   On our quest for Tanelorn   We lose our way   On our quest for Tanelorn   We lose our way   On our quest for Tanelorn   We're left alone
