lyrics

in the circles of sun, moon and world
was a paradise unlike none on earth
you wouldn't believe it could come crashing down
and it's deepest footsteps would be drowned

listen to the waves for it's whisper
the tales of old buried beneath the waves
a world close to our own but oh so different
from a time when we had no past behind

under the sun-kissed waves
lies paradise in a watery grave
nothing really known about its place
but its mystery echoes through time

sparkling fire was the gold of desire
and for the people there was nothing higher
then truth and belief of a higher ground
than the paradise they did found

what really happened to this land?
did the earth take it with a swipe of the hand?
did they know to much or to little?
will we ever find the answer to the riddle?

under the sun-kissed waves
lies paradise in a watery grave
nothing really known about its place
but its mystery echoes through time

it can't all be a fairytale
this story of a seeming paradise
placed between two pillars of power
it's written this place was a desire

but i guess i'll never see or know
what really happened all that time ago
and the people that were there
their legend will live on through the years

under the sun-kissed waves
lies paradise in a watery grave
nothing really known about its place
but its mystery echoes through time

under the sun-kissed waves
lies paradise in a watery grave
nothing really known about its place
but its mystery echoes through time

under the sun-kissed waves
lies paradise...
