A fugitive has been away so long A thousand years and now he thinks of home The long men are waiting in the wings to put him in chains upon his return Emptiness his bitterness is gone Journey the road to the eternal reward It's a long way to go A black angel at your side A long way to go that angel at your side A long way to go the reaper at your side A long way to go A black angel at your side The sirens call a sailor to die Enchanted by the sound his desires have been found In his mind his life is rushing by All this while the storm it rages on
