NIGHTWISH lyrics : "The Riddler"

Riddler, Riddler ask me why
The birds fly free on a mackerel sky
Ask me whither goes the winds

Whence the endlesstick-tick stream begins

Make me guess if the Earth is flat or round

Set a quessing if fantasies are unbound
If tale aren't just for children to see
That it's peace is sleep walks with me


As you wish
For kingdom come

The one to know all the answers
You think you dwell in wisdom's sea
Still, sweet ignorance is the key

To a poet's paradise
Challenge the Riddler and you will see


Riddler, Riddler ask me why
All mothers beneath the Earth and sky
Hold theait children's hands for a while

Their hearts forever... yours and mine

Make me wonder what's the meaning of life

What's the use to be born and then die
Make me guess who's the one
Behind the mask of Father and Son


[Repeat chorus]


For nature hates virginity
I wish to be touched
Not by the hands of where's and why's

But by the Ocean's minds

[Repeat chorus]
