Soon they'll appear
             F                  Gm
The high and mighty show up the king
      F           Gm
Is in doubts
                 F             Gm
"Apart from this beggar here
                    F               Gm
There's no one like you my dear
           F
Tasting my lips
           Gm  A#  F
No one but you and him"

Round the fire everyone should sing
    Gm         C        F
And praise the gracious queen
          Gm   F               Gm
Round the fire everyone should dance
       Gm         F        C
And we praise the handsome knight

  D#                 F
Forever and ever we both will be one

The maiden, the fair and the young
Fell in love

There's a moment in life when all the years will pass by
        Gm               F             C
And the eyes filled with tears we once shed
   Gm        F             C         Gm
We recognize failures, the desperate cries
       Gm       F               Gm
Of the ones who believed in our lies

Whenever I'll go you'll be with me

My first though and my last

One day you'll understand

Gm          F            Gm
Yesterday's memories and melodies
                  F        Gm
Are gone with the wind, so sad
               F                    Gm
Snow-white her hands and golden her hair
                  F
But she's not the one
           Gm                           F
Out in the emptiness where everything's pale
         Gm         F         Gm
There is no sign of you, I'm alone
                     F             Gm
How I wish you would be here, I'm alone
                  F
Telling me it's alright

D#             F
Come rest your head
D#             F
Come rest your head
D#             F
Come rest your head
D#             F
Come rest your head

I'm alone and sadness reigns in my heart
    Gm        F             Gm
As long as we live it won't go away
       Gm      F      C    
We are one but torn apart

Gm             F
Will you still wait for me?

Proudly it stands

Until the world's end

The victorious banner of love
