Ayreon – Tunnel Of Light lyrics

Be joyful, my friends! You will now enter the tunnel of light!
Let brilliance suffuse your souls! Make your choice!
Your path is incandescent!

HIGHLANDER:
Don't offer me the light, when I only know the darkness
thats where I want to hide...
There's a chill in my bones, that I recognise from another life,
that's why I'm heading home.

EGYPTIAN: Ra-Heliopolis! Ka-Anenti!
ROMAN: Into Elysium!
KNIGHT: The isle of Avalon!
EGYPTIAN: In the tunnel of light!

HIGHLANDER:
Don't tempt my heart with hope!
In the shadow of broken promises, I guard my dreams.
In the bend of a swollen river,
in the roots of weeping willows, I choose to lie.

EGYPTIAN: Ra-Heliopolis! Ka-Anenti!
ROMAN: Into Elysium!
KNIGHT: The isle of Avalon!
INDIAN: The legend has begun!
FUTUREMAN: Our one and only sun!
EGYPTIAN: In the tunnel of light!

EGYPTIAN: Ra-Heliopolis!
HIGHLANDER: I rest my broken heart, where the willows weep.
EGYPTIAN: Ka-Anenti!
ROMAN: Into Elysium!
HIGHLANDER: I will lay me down...
KNIGHT: The isle of Avalon!
HIGHLANDER: I will rest my head...
INDIAN: The legend has begun!
HIGHLANDER: I will close my eyes...

EGYPTIAN: In the tunnel of light!
