The Emperor's Ghost
Take me back my sweetest friend
I will never let you go
There was a time when I was alone
Please don't let me go
You sang me a lonesome song
In the cherry blossom field
The pedals of yesterday
Rain down on us still
The frozen lake oh how it dreams
Of a warmer sun
Atop the mountains we would sit
And read words of love
The fire in the lighthouse
Promises to burn
Return to me the clouds would say
In the sullen sky
Take me back to where the rivers run wild
Under the trees where the pheasants cry
In the meadows we would toss and turn
Where the relics and ruins were left to burn
Where the emperor's ghost came regal and proud
And his crown was tilted to one side
And he sat on his snow covered throne and cried
And he wondered why
Oh how he wondered why...
I will never let you go
There was a time when I was alone
Please don't let me go
You sang me a lonesome song
In the cherry blossom field
The pedals of yesterday
Rain down on us still
The frozen lake oh how it dreams
Of a warmer sun
Atop the mountains we would sit
And read words of love
The fire in the lighthouse
Promises to burn
Return to me the clouds would say
In the sullen sky
Take me back to where the rivers run wild
Under the trees where the pheasants cry
In the meadows we would toss and turn
Where the relics and ruins were left to burn
Where the emperor's ghost came regal and proud
And his crown was tilted to one side
And he sat on his snow covered throne and cried
And he wondered why
Oh how he wondered why...
