[Music and lyrics by Tony Kakko]
In good old times, remember my friend
Moon was so bright and so close to us,
sometimes
We were still blind and deaf, what a bliss?
Painting the world of our own, for our own eyes, now?
"Can we ever
have what we had then?
Friendship unbreakable
Love means nothing to me
Without blinking an eye
I'd fade, if so needed,
All
those moments with you
If I had you beside me"
One cloudy day we both lost the game?
We drifted so far and
away
Nothing is quite as cruel as a child
Sometimes we break the unbreakable, sometimes?
"And we'll never have what we
had then
Friendship unbroken
Love means nothing to me
Without blinking an eye
I'd fade, if so needed,
All those moments
with you
If I had you beside me now"
I was unable to cope with what you said
Sometimes we need to be cruel to be
kind
Child that I was, could not see the reason
Feelings I had were but sham and a lie?
I have never forgotten your
smile
Your eyes, oh, Shamandalie
Time went by, many memories died
I'm writing this down to ease my pain
You saw us
always clearer than me
How we were never meant to be
Love denied meant the friendship would die
Now I have seen the
light
These memories make me cry
"Can I ever have what I had then?
Friendship unbroken
Love means nothing to me
Without
blinking an eye
I'd fade, if so needed,
All those moments with you
And see the world with my wide open eyes
Friendship got
broken
There's no other for me
Like the one of my childhood days
Can you forgive me?
The love got better off me,
On that
day back in old times"
