Bride of the Dark

High on a black rock
The ghost of a corsair captain
Watches over his treasure
Buried Deep

If you tread on his domain
He will throw you
Gold thirsty fool
Down the abyss
To meet your destiny

Unfortunate lovelorn
Beware the Bride of the dark
For her you will drown
On a golden bed
The bed of your death

Daughter of a powerful lord
Like a witch, feared by all
Standing proud and bold
Ignorant of the men
Imploring her love

Unfortunate lovelorn
Beware the Bride of the dark
For her you will drown
On a golden bed
The bed of your death

Malicious, she induces
The eager men to seek
Her deadly gift
Beneath this sombre place
Where mortals die in vain
Impelled by the ghostly hand

Unfortunate lovelorn
Beware the Bride of the dark
For her you will drown
On a golden bed
The bed of your death

Was she under the spell?
The Bride of the dark
Finally love struck
Dived to the golden depths

Searching the waters
For her wedding's treasure
Was she trapped by the ghost at last?
Forever Bride of the Dark
Forever Bride of the Dark!

The Messenger

Whisper, candle flicker
A presence like a perfume
Shiver…..

Why My Beautiful one?
Your presence like a flame
Torments me like a dagger in my heart

Rejoice my only love
Sacred moments to see you again

Hold you, embrace you
Everlasting love
Beyond life, beyond death
Everlasting love
Messenger, my memory

To join you in death
My life is a pit of emptiness
To rest together, forever

Angel so long gone
Wraith haunting the ruins of my heart
Ghost made of ashes

Dispel my endless love
My only love
Our two worlds are linked together
In harmony and so the souls shall be

Our love is the scent of life
The light in your eyes
