Close your eyes and whisper "goodbye" You will never see how I cry I can recall what you said to me once: "If I leave there will be a sign" And the twilight will show me tonight From dusk to dawn, that's when we arise All souls forlorn, come down from the skies We're called the mist by the human race but we do exist in a million ways Oh, I'm in the twilight world tonight And I obey the moon I'm in the twilight world tonight The mist will dance and the elves will sing their croon My eyes will not believe the sight They dance in trance this magic night The sound that did enchant my ears I feel my eyes release the tears I, I know the answer now To die I am no longer afraid somehow And now I know that there is another way for me to go And now they show that there is life in the afterglow I can feel the presence of the unknown side The shivers infest my body, this cannot be denied Oh, we're in the twilight world tonight And we obey the moon We're in the twilight world tonight The mist will dance and the elves will sing their croon No way this can't be a dream... I pinched my skin to make sure I was awake What I see might be too much for me to take They dance in a circle just above the ground and I can see you and it looks like you're still alive Somehow you seem so relieved A nightbird chasing the shadows flies right through your body And then I know that you don't really exist You're just a reflection in this midsummer dance I feel my heart pounding faster than ever before I must have stopped breathing, the image of you fades And now I know why I had the strong feeling that I must find This place you once described and to see your final dance Will we ever meet again? No! Oh, they're in the twilight world tonight And they obey the moon They're in the twilight world tonight The mist will dance and the elves will sing their croon They fade away and so do I You're gone, I'll always wonder why You came and made me realize That you exist there in the twilight sky Is this a dream or plain reality? It feels more like a trip to what I never thought I'd see Suddenly fear took a hold of my mind I had to move away unless I would go blind Oh, you're in the twilight world tonight And you obey the moon You're in the twilight world tonight The mist will dance and the elves will sing their croon I, I know the answer now To die I am no longer afraid somehow So I fade away
