Silently the night veils,
shadows within its darkness
abruptly, like memories fade away to the past
Voices calm down,
In silence I'll stay,
I've lived through this moment so many times.
Staring into the abyss,
I close my eyes, and suddenly see,
the distant flames
brighter and brighter
the distant flames
brighter and brighter
Reaching out to us,
those glimmering distant flames,
Night after night they shine brighter n brighter',
Reaching out to us,
those burning far-away flames,
Night after night they gleam brighter n brighter'
I've come a long way,
And am still travelling,
All across the land,
I've been through life,
And there's still more to see,
although I may not understand it all.
Reaching out to us,
those glimmering distant flames,
Night after another they shine brighter and brighter',
Reaching out to us,
those burning far-away flames,
Night after another they gleam brighter and brighter'
Am I simply a ghost
Who quietly goes on
Without ever settling for a destination?
Endless is my road,
And far off is my home,
Still, I wouldn't compromise the memories that I have made
Staring into the abyss,
I close my eyes, and suddenly see,
the distant flames
all the more brighter
the distant flames
all the more brighter
