Oceans Of Time
Axel Rudi Pell · Best Of-Anniversary Edition [2009]
And we're ready to leave to the bridges of sin, yeah
Seven wonders, we're ready to fly
Like an eagle we're touching the sky
We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Past the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time
As the sun fades to dark light we knew
There was no way to return, yeah
All the stars were passing by
We were riding through the sky
On our endless journey through space
Seven wonders, we're ready to fly
Like an eagle, we're touching the sky
We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Past the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time
Dust to the stone and the black moon touched the dawn
And we're trying to get out of this world of burning fear
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-ohh
[Solo]
Seven wonders, and we're ready to fly
Like an eagle, we're touching the sky, yeah
We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're moving through the twilight
Past the black moon on our way
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're sailing on the oceans of time
And never look back
We're sailing on, on time
I see you turn, turning away
Never look back, yeah
We're sailing on the oceans of time
We're sailing on
The oceans of time
Oceans of time
Dont turn away
Dont turn, no dont turn away
Dont turn away
The oceans of time
We sailed across the ocean
On the wind of the sea
We're sailing on the oceans of time
The oceans of time
Oceans of time
[Repeat until fade]
