I came across this new song while browsing NightWish’s website for their latest news -> here <-. That's like the only group that I actually care to bother about the next upcoming albums! Next album will be out by late September - Dark Passion Play.

Back to the song! It's not a NW song by the way, but written and sung by a couple of NW members - mainly Tuomas and Marcos. The song is the main track for a Finnish film due to be released in September also named "LIEKSA!".

I fell in love with the song the moment I watched the clip and listened to it. It's the complete opposite of what I would have expected from NightWish members, it's so sweet to the ears, almost begging you to sleep along while listening. I've been listening to it constantly ever since :D.

The film "Lieksa" also seems to be nice, from the synopsis which you can read on the YouTube page below - I just hope they'll have it in English!

Lyrics and download link to the song are found below. Enjoy :).


Sweet little words makes the silence
A too young heart to love, not heartache
Dark hair fall
Catch in the wind
Light the way, the sight of a cold world

Kiss,
While your lips are still red
While he’s still silent rest
While bosom is still untouched
Unveiled for another hand
While the hands still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn

First day of love never comes back
Compassion
A tower is never wasted wrong
The violin, the poets tale
Every flowing heart plays a theme with care

Kiss,
While your lips are still red
While he’s still silent rest
While bosom is still untouched
Unveiled for another hand
While the hands still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn

    it’s too bad Tarja had to leave :( her voice was really amazing.

    the new one’s voice is quite different, not as intense as Tarja’s but she’s ok, in my opinion :P

    Actually, the lyrics are:

    Sweet little words made for silence
    Not talk
    Young heart for love
    Not heartache
    Dark hair for catching the wind
    Not to veil the sight of a cold world

    Kiss while your lips are still red
    While he`s still silent
    Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
    Hold another hand while the hand`s still without a tool
    Drown into eyes while they`re still blind
    Love while the night still hides the withering dawn

    First day of love never comes back
    A passionate hour`s never a wasted one
    The violin, the poet`s hand,
    Every thawing heart plays your theme with care

    Kiss while your lips are still red
    While he`s still silent
    Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
    Hold another hand while the hand`s still without a tool
    Drown into eyes while they`re still blind
    Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
