A Winter Shadow Lyrics

The song A Winter Shadow is performed by Tiamat in the album named The Astral Sleep in the year 1991 .



Black, cold and dismal
Sweeping through the nocturnal haze
Led by the midnight breeze
On its journey to its resting place

A shadow out of time
Hidden between different spheres
Forsaken by memory
To forever fly alone

A Winter Shadow
Under the haunted starlight
Under the light of the moon
Among stars so bright
Delivered from Gods
And cursed to an everlasting search

Pa*sed certain heavenly places
Cried out at the gates of light
No open door was seen
Why it decided to a*sault

At the throne of the Almighty
It asked for hospitality
But the hands of God
Threw this stranger out

Time for a final step
It seduced through darkened space
Ended the hellish gates stood proud

But a shadow out of time
Yet caught between spheres
It supposed to enter the night
And to forever fly alone

To forever fly alone...
