It was cold the day they found you by the river

Broken dreams had turned to ice upon your cheek

It was cold the day I swore

Until my dying breath

I'd be give my life to heal those broken dreams.

I've waited

Longed for the day

To show you

To take you away.

Rise to the queen of the symphony

Watch her step into the light

Surrender your heart to the melody

Let it take flight

She'll sing to you

The opus of the night.

Trembling steps into a world she had forgotten

Dusty roses on a royal velvet seat

And the letter in her name

Brings her back again

Familiar the notes upon the sheet.

I've waited

Longed for the day

Seduce me

Take me away.

Rise to the queen of the symphony

Watch her step into the light

Surrender your heart to the melody

Let it take flight

She'll sing to you

The opus of the night.

A dark silhouette

Lingering age old desperation

Reviving grand nostalgia

Come shivers of pure admiration.

Close your eyes

Now let your emotions take flight

Goddess in white.

Rise to the queen of the symphony

Watch her step into the light

Surrender your heart to the melody

Let it take flight

She'll sing to you

The opus of the night.

One last encore for the queen of the stage

One final bow for the old prima donna.

I sing to you

The opus of the night.
