Flight Of Torek Lyrics - Singles - Aina

[Narrator: Tobias Sammet] 

[Talon: Glenn Hughes] 

[Torek: Thomas Rettke] 

[Backing Vocals: Robert Hunecke-Rizzo] 

[Narrator:] 

The King has ruled a reign of long 

And good and fair he was to all 

But alas, the sun sets on his time 

Which renders him frail and small 

The throne now calls the next in line 

Where Torek stands, proud and strong 

His destiny writ in the books of old 

To rule as King in the House of Ainean 

[Chorus:] 

But pride can come to rule the ones 

Whose hearts are faintly clouded 

For love can blind and torture you 

And in rage leave you shrouded 

Destruction of a soul 

Can be the aftermath of loss 

Then fear the flight of Torek 

For it will bring chaos! 

The crown that lays upon his head 

Is surely bright and shining 

But won't compare to his shining love 

For whom his heart is pining 

A queen he needs to fill the place 

Beside his throne now empty 

And he's longed for his Lady Oria 

For a thousand years and twenty 

[Chorus] 

Of his love he'd said to none 

Whilst plans he'd had to make 

And on the eve that he would profess 

His plans he came to break 

For Talon came, his brother dear 

Shaking with delight 

And with growing rage did Torek hear 

His love was taken claim that night 

[Talon:] 

My brother, I have such news to share 

My longing kept hidden in strife 

My heart is overjoicing 

For soon I shall have a wife 

To Oria Allyahan 

Did I profess my love 

And fall into my arms did she 

And say that she did love... 

... me too 

[Narrator:] 

Fire coursing through his veins 

To Oria he ran 

To beg her if it all was true 

To pray to understand 

So hear did he her true heart said 

Her love belonged to his brother 

And curse did he their new found love 

[Aina Choir:] 

For cursed she should be 

If she didn't love he! 

[Narrator:] 

And should be content with no other! 

[Aina Choir:] 

Yes, cursed she will be 

If she doesn't love he! 

[Narrator:] 

Out he storms from Aina fair 

A self-imposed exile 

Far he'll go to escape the burn 

Of rejection's bitter bile 

Out he storms not looking back 

And vows to never return 

For now he hates the lovely land 

And would rather see it burned 

[Torek:] 

For how I hate that lovely land 

And will someday see it burn!!
