Music

All songs from Oceanborn with lyrics.


Stargazers

Song about greatness of the Earth in the universe, among the stars.
The motion in the universe and knowledge of Earth's existence.

''Wanderers in cosmic caravan
Universal bond - The Starborn''




Gethsemane

Song about Jesus in Gethsemane, a man who knows he is going to die praying.

''The Lord weeps with me
But my tears fall for you''




Devil & The Deep Dark Ocean

Very dark song about the power of the ocean, innocence, freedom, death
and the man who becoming one with the ocean.
Album art presents ''A snowy owl above the haunted waters''.

"I will die for the love of the mermaid
Her seduction beauty and scorn
Welcome to the end of your life
- Hail the Oceanborn!"




Sacrament Of Wilderness

Song about the ancient man and the nature, the wild that might be tamed one day.

''Wrapped in furs beneath the northern lights
From my cave I watch the land untamed
And wonder if some becoming season
Will make the angel melt in shame''




Passion And The Opera

An erotic, passion, perversion love game with accompanying opera.

''Body of a virgin
Soul to the Devil's kin
Your God is me
In all that you see''




Swanheart

People should find the beauty that comes from the inside.
Love is something that need not be taken for granted.

''In my world
Love is for poets
Never the famous balcony scene
Just a dying faith
On the heaven's gate''




Moondance

A dance at the ocean shore on the full moonlight.




The Riddler

Mysteries and questions about the world's and mankind's existence.

''For nature hates virginity
I wish to be touched
Not by the hands of where's and why's
But by the Oceans' minds''




The Pharaoh Sails To Orion

From The Book Of Exodus, liberation of slaves.
And about the good and evil in people.

''Sailing on the distant seas from darkness to deliverance
Tales like the ocean written to the Draco's glance
Ruling with the scythe of death you tear our philosophies apart
An ancient starwalk to merge into the stars''




Walking In The Air

First Nightwish cover, from the magical winter short movie The Snowman from 1984.
Walking in the air above the magical winter landscapes.

''We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by''




Nightquest

Song about Nightwish and its membersand fans,
enjoy the music and follow the band on their journey.

''Nightquest a quest not for the past
But for tomorrow to make it last
Simply the best way to walk this life
Hand in hand with a dreamer's mind''




Sleeping Sun

Belief in life and fate inspired by solar eclipse.

''For my dreams I hold my life
For wishes I behold my night
The truth at the end of time
Losing faith makes a crime''
