6. Midsummer's Eve (4:28)
Still unkissed
Maiden of mist
Don't let your soul go to waste
Come pain, come grief
Come precious relief
Memories fade in the dark
So come reveries
An old fashioned heart
Is a winterland waiting to bloom
Simple sentiments
Wild and untamed
Free like the northern wind
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a crown
Fit for a queen
In candle light
Futures unite
Crossing the great ocean wide
Come endless nights
Come weathering heights
I dare you to walk by my side
So come sacrifice
The unselfish love
Is a offering worthy of life
Till the day I die
You will be safe and free
Like the evening breeze
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a crown
Fit for a queen
As the autumn bids us farewell
I'll sing you our song
The same old heartfelt words
Just one last time
And the story will sound like a dream
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a silver crown
Fit for a queen
Queen of mine
Queen of mine
Maiden of mist
Don't let your soul go to waste
Come pain, come grief
Come precious relief
Memories fade in the dark
So come reveries
An old fashioned heart
Is a winterland waiting to bloom
Simple sentiments
Wild and untamed
Free like the northern wind
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a crown
Fit for a queen
In candle light
Futures unite
Crossing the great ocean wide
Come endless nights
Come weathering heights
I dare you to walk by my side
So come sacrifice
The unselfish love
Is a offering worthy of life
Till the day I die
You will be safe and free
Like the evening breeze
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a crown
Fit for a queen
As the autumn bids us farewell
I'll sing you our song
The same old heartfelt words
Just one last time
And the story will sound like a dream
Like a dream
On Midsummer's eve
I've come to sweep you away
Seven promises
In her hair
Like a silver crown
Fit for a queen
Queen of mine
Queen of mine
