--> * Within Temptation *

In a world so far away . . .
At the end of a closing day . . .
A little child was born and raised . . .
Deep in the forest on a hidden place . . . .
Mother never saw his face . . .

Ancient spirits of the forest . . . .
Made him king of elves and trees . . . .
He was the only human being . . .
Who lived in harmony . . .
In perfect harmony . . . .

The woods protected, fulfillled his needs . . . .
Fruit by birds, honey by bees . . .
He found shelter under trees . . .
He grew up in their company . . . .
They became his family . . . .

A thousand seasons . . .
They passed him by . . .
So many times, have said goodbye . . .
And when the spirits called out his name . . . .
To join forever, forever to stay . . . .
A forest spirit he became . . . .

Ancient spirits of the forest . . . .
Made him king of elves and trees . . . .
He was the only human being . . .
Who lived in harmony . . .
In perfect harmony . . . .
