opeth - in the mist she was standing lyrics

seven milestones...
under a watching autumn eye
contorted trees are spreading forth
the message of the wind

with frozen hands i rode with the stars

with anger the wind blew
giving wings to my stallion
clouds gathered across the moon
blazing the white light

passing the lake i know so well
i am near, yet so far away

arrival...
i saw her shadow (standing) in the darkness
awaiting me like the night
awaits the day
standing silent smiling at my presence
a black candle holds the only light

darkness encloses
and the candle seem to expire
in her cold, cold hand
and as a forlorn soul
it will fade away

touching her flesh in this night
my blood froze forever
embraced before the dawn
a kiss brought total eclipse

and she spoke
once and forever
i am so cold
in mist enrobed the twilight
she was standing...
