Once upon a dream we used to know

In a land and time beyond all mortal life

A maiden danced through fields of green and gold

Her mother's love surrounds her like a light

But one day the maiden walked along

Beyond her mother's sacred palisades

And out upon a flowered plain a song

Drew her down and oh, so far away

Far away, far away

Lord of the Dark

Lonely in Paradise

Here comes your need

Here comes your queen

Maiden of Earth

Bringer of love and light

Here is your thronе

Her is your home

Souls of the Dеad

Arise in joy and peace

She has come down

She has come down

Together they reign

Together the Underworld

Death has she faced

To find her own place

But then they heard her mother's woeful cry

Above the fields had turned to brown and died

The Middle World was crushed with pain and fear

As the goddess mother mourned her daughter dear

Daughter dear, daughter dear

And so it came to pass that down below

The king and queen embraced in sad goodbyes

And as her light went up up, all the souls

Prayed for her return by and by

Once upon a dream we used to know

In a land and time beyond all mortal life

A maiden danced through fields of green and gold

And her mother's love surrounds her like a light
