Once upon a time there was a lonely creature Mind always shrouded in darkness Hopeless was he, without a prayer for salvation Dwelling forever in the abyss
But then one glorious afternoon An angel's light broke through the gloom They were both far from home In a land they didn't know She held out her hand And asked him to follow
And the demon loved an angel She brought salvation to his pain The demon loved an angel She was his white rose in the rain The demon loved an angel His heart no longer black The demon loved an angel But she could never...love him back
They journeyed together in a far off land Where all they had was each other It was there amongst forests and lakes The one fell in love with the other
The demon and the angel, together but alone The demon's cold and bitter heart, no longer made of stone The angel brought him peace Showed love to a beast From his pain emancipated From his sorrow, now released
And the demon loved an angel She brought salvation to his pain The demon loved an angel She was his white rose in the rain The demon loved an angel His heart no longer black The demon loved an angel But she could never...love him back
They knew they had to return home But he could not say goodbye The thought of losing her forever Ripped through him inside
But in the end, they parted ways And he returned home Back to the abysmal gloom Once again alone Before long she disappeared Never to be found Then the pain, the sorrow and loss Pulled his soul back down...
And to this day he wonders why Why he couldn't say goodbye And to this day he's lived a life Of joy and sorrow, peace and strife But since that day he's watched the stars And can't forget the ancient scars Try as he might, he can't let go Of the day so long ago....
That the demon loved an angel She brought salvation to his pain The demon loved an angel She was his white rose in the rain The demon loved an angel His heart no longer black The demon loved an angel But she could never love him back
