Amorphis

Three Words

From all the four corners
From the heights beyond the changing skies
From in between the golden stars
From lands of dead below

I seek the magic for my spell
The power for my charm
For want of three words
For want of three words for my song

Three words for my magic song
A boat for love I’d carve
Three words for my magic song
A craft of life I’d build

Along the Tuoni pathway
To gloomy shore
Across the lands of dead
To find the missing charm

Death’s maiden showed the way
To death’s grim abode
Where death’s wife offered me
Death’s drink to have

Three words for magic
Three words from Death
