In The Mist She Was Standing - Opeth

Seven milestones…

Under a watching autumn eye

Contorted trees are spreading forth

The message of the wind

With frozen hands I rode with the stars

With anger the wind blew

Giving wings to my stallion

Clouds gathered across the moon

Blazing the white light

Passing the lake I know so well

I am near, yet so far away

Arrival…

I saw her shadow in the darkness

Awaiting me like the night

Awaits the day

Standing silent smiling at my presence

A black candle holds the only light

Darkness encloses

And the candle seem to expire

In her cold, cold hand

And as a forlorn soul

It will fade away

Touching her flesh in this night

My blood froze forever

Embraced before the dawn

A kiss brought total eclipse

And she spoke

Once and forever

I am so cold

In mist enrobed the twilight

She was standing…
