[Intro]
Leaves without color
Streams without song
Elderglade whispers
Something is wrong

[Verse]
We walked beneath the ancient trees
Where no green lantern touched the breeze
The flowers bowed in robes of ash
The river moved like broken glass
No faun, no bird, no hidden bell
No stories only woods can tell
The roots were cold beneath our feet
As if the earth forgot to beat

[Pre-Chorus]
Elyra sang, but softly
For the forest seemed to weep
And the dragon priest was praying
For the seeds that could not sleep

[Chorus]
Grey forests of Elderglade
Hold on through the sorrow
We will bring the light you gave
Back into tomorrow
Every leaf will rise again
Every stream will run
Grey forests of Elderglade
Wait for the sun

[Verse]
Arian found in bark and stone
The signs of crowns the trees had known
The stars once fed their emerald veins
Now silence fell like winter chains
Seralyne touched a withered thorn
And saw the day the oaths were sworn
To guard the gate, to guard the sky
To keep the world too bright to die

[Pre-Chorus]
Then a single silver blossom
Opened in the fading air
Like a sign that all was wounded
But not beyond repair

[Chorus]
Grey forests of Elderglade
Hold on through the sorrow
We will bring the light you gave
Back into tomorrow
Every leaf will rise again
Every stream will run
Grey forests of Elderglade
Wait for the sun

[Solo]

[Bridge]
Sleep now, roots of memory
Dream beneath the stone
We will cross the burning sea
No world dies alone

[Chorus]
Grey forests of Elderglade
Hold on through the sorrow
We will bring the light you gave
Back into tomorrow
Every leaf will rise again
Every stream will run
Grey forests of Elderglade
Wait for the sun

[Outro]
Leaves without color
Still remember green
