"Storytime" lyrics
(originally by Nightwish)
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah (Oh-oh, oh, no, no, no)
It was the night before when all through the world
No words, no dreams and then one day
A writer by a fire imagined all of Gaia
Took a journey into a child-man's heart
A painter on the shore imagined all the world
Within the snowflake of his palm
Dream of poetry, a canvas of awe
Planet Earth falling to the stars
I am the voice of Never-Never-Land (Oh yeah)
The innocence, the dreams of every man (Oh yeah)
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan (Oh yeah)
A silent kite against the blue, blue sky, no (Oh yeah)
Every chimney, every moonlit sight (Oh yeah)
I am the story that will read you real (Oh yeah)
Every memory that you hold dear (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh no, I am the journey, I am the destination
I am the home, the tale that reads you
A way to taste the night, the elusive high
Follow the madness like you once did
Imaginarium, a dream emporium
Caress the tales and they will dream you real
A storyteller's game, lips intoxicate
The core of all life's freedom
I am the voice of Never-Never-Land (Oh yeah)
The innocence, the dreams of every man (Oh yeah)
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan (Oh yeah)
A silent kite against the blue, blue sky (Oh yeah)
I am the story that will read you real (Oh yeah)
Every chimney, every moonlit sight (Oh yeah)
Everything that you hold dear gives you freedom (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh, no, no, no, no
I will not let suffering be my end
I will not let pain be what defines me
I will not let anger be what defines me
I will not let your will imposed upon mine be palm upon my candle
I will not be handled
I will dream when there are no dreams left to dream
I will breathe when there is no breath left to breathe
I am human for it is my God-given right
I will not let the sun hide before it turns to shine on this fucked-up heart of mine
I will find an oasis in the desert
I will find a basis in the hurting
I am the voice of forever and don't you ever, ever fucking forget it
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah (Oh-oh, oh, no, no, no)
It was the night before when all through the world
No words, no dreams and then one day
A writer by a fire imagined all of Gaia
Took a journey into a child-man's heart
A painter on the shore imagined all the world
Within the snowflake of his palm
Dream of poetry, a canvas of awe
Planet Earth falling to the stars
I am the voice of Never-Never-Land (Oh yeah)
The innocence, the dreams of every man (Oh yeah)
I am the empty crib of Peter Pan (Oh yeah)
A silent kite against the blue, blue sky, no (Oh yeah)
Every chimney, every moonlit sight (Oh yeah)
I am the story that will read you real (Oh yeah)
Every memory that you hold dear (Oh yeah, oh yeah)
Oh no, I am the journey, I am the destination
I am the home, the tale that reads you
A way to taste the night, the elusive high
Follow the madness like you once did

Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
