The Riddler |
Riddler, Riddler ask me why |
The birds fly free on a mackerel sky |
Ask me whither goes the winds |
Whence the endless tick-tick scream begins |
Make me guess if the Earth is flat of round |
Set a guessing if fantasies are unbound |
If tales aren`t just for children to see |
That it`s peace if sleep walks with me |
As you wish for kingdom come |
The one to know all the answers |
You think you dwell in wisdom`s sea |
Still, sweet ignorance is the key |
To a poet`s paradise |
Challenge the Riddler and you will see… |
Riddler, Riddler ask me why |
All mothers beneath the Earth and sky |
Hold their children`s hands for a while — |
Their hearts forever… yours and mine |
Make me wonder what`s the meaning of life |
What`s the use to be born and then die |
Make me guess who`s The one |
Behind the mask of Father and Son |
As you wish for kingdom come |
The one to know all the answers |
You think you dwell in wisdom`s sea |
Still, sweet ignorance is the key |
To a poet`s paradise |
Challenge the Riddler and you will see… |
For nature hates virginity |
I wish to be touched |
Not by the hands of where`s and why`s |
But by oceans minds |
As you wish for kingdom come |
The one to know all the answers |
You think you dwell in wisdom`s sea |
Still, sweet ignorance is the key |
To a poet`s paradise |
Challenge the Riddler and you will see… |
Nightwish — |
