The Isle of Time

[Verse] A thousand years roam these lands Old sage stands with empty hands Joyless days and endless nights He sees black instead of light [Verse 2] Secrets held within his heart Power strong sets him apart Lonely wisdom in his eyes Beneath the stars and endless skies [Chorus] Oh the sage lives so long Lost the joy in life’s song Mighty deeds yet no bliss All that's loved he does miss [Verse 3] Whispers winds tell his tale Endless walk on ancient trail Once a smile now just pain Through the sun and steady rain [Bridge] Knowledge comes at such a cost Power gained but joy is lost Hands can heal break or mend But not his soul again [Chorus] Oh the sage lives so long Lost the joy in life’s song Mighty deeds yet no bliss All that's loved he does miss
