The Silk Dilemma Lyrics - Elvenking

[Music & Lyrics: Aydan] 

Long the shores of a silent stream 

I'm picking up pieces of my life 

Finding out I was living my own dream 

Beginning once again 

I searched for themes 

that I never knew before 

It's like roaming a forest in winter 

searching buds buried in snow 

I learnt new languages, 

new forms to proclaim 

All the will to be so sincere, 

not lying to myself again 

Roaming through forest's trees 

Creating a white snow trail on fallen 

leaves 

Oh Mother Moon 

Illuminate my return 

'cause the road I took is so obscure 

Sinking and drowning in a sea of fears 

Showing compassion to the moan 

Already happened in day long gone 

The silk dilemma is the key, it's still for me 

One by one the lights fade out 

The fright-night covers all with her cloak 

You cannot name the colour of the dark 

I fall into a dream 

From the lands lying at the end of World 

I am bringing this dress as a gift, it is 

made with the purest silk 

She smiled at me, 

she never wore the dress 

Touching the fabric was like holding 

nothing in your hand 

Roaming through forest's trees 

Creating a white snow trail on fallen 

leaves 

Oh Mother Moon 

Illuminate my return 

'cause the road I took is so obscure 

Sinking and drowning in a sea of fears 

Showing compassion to the moan 

Already happened in day long gone 

The silk dilemma is the key 

Hold my hand - 'till the sun set off 

I'm proud of what I've done 

At least the days I've spent are so totally 

unique
