Boy And The Ghost Lyrics - Act 1 - Tarja Turunen

the streets are empty 

Inside it's warm 

His hands are shaking 

They locked the door 

A voice is calling 

Asking to get in 

All he wanted was a toy 

All he needed was a gentle heart 

To lead him through the dark 

When his dreams are running wild 

Boy and the ghost 

Fire's not burning 

The lights went out 

The lights went out 

Big family dinner 

The untold pain 

Their eyes are sparkling 

On his frozen face 

Angels calling 

Asking to get in 

All he wanted was a toy 

All he needed was a gentle heart 

To lead him through the dark 

When there's nowhere left to fall 

Boy and the ghost 

His eyes are burning 

The lights went out 

The dream is on 

Wake up, wake up 

There's an angel in the snow 

Look up, look up 

It's a frightened dead boy 

With so much hate 

Such bad dreams 

He could have seen 

The toy's the key 

But no one saw 

No one saw 

All he wanted was a toy 

All he needed was a beating heart 

To lead him through the dark 

Boy and the ghost 

When there's nowhere left to fall 

Nowhere to hide 

The silence is 'hurting' 

Inside it's cold 

Sleep or die 

Nowhere to go 

Nowhere to hide 

His light went out
