NIGHTWISH
"Perfume Of The Timeless"

[Verse 1: Floor Jansen]
Something from the earth came
Something for the world
Mosaic of broken fragile pieces
Tesserae of the deceased
Born to a novel world

[Pre-Chorus: Floor Jansen]
Endless chain unbroken
Silent clocks rewinding
My song, it is for mankind
Embers to the stars

[Chorus: Floor Jansen]
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
Time set for a curious ghost

[Verse 2: Floor Jansen]
Lives lived plain and epic
Of eudaemonia
Twelve score and one chain of lives unending
Welcoming as my offspring
Walks me to the weave

[Pre-Chorus: Floor Jansen]
My song, it is for mankind
Embers to the stars

[Chorus: Floor Jansen]
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
Time set for a curious ghost

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus: Floor Jansen]
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
Time set for a curious ghost

[Outro: Troy Donockley]
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs on a deathbed
We are their heir, dust on their palm
We are because of a million loves
We're the perfume of the timeless
Last sighs of a million loves
