Tides
Arovane Lyrics

Far over the Misty Mountains rise
Looking out into the distance, we see the tall mountains cloaked in mist looming before us.

Leave us standing upon the height
Standing atop the mountain, we gaze out at the world with a feeling of empowerment and purpose.

What was before we see once more
As we take a step back and absorb our surroundings, we realize the beauty and majesty that we may have overlooked before.

Is our kingdom a distant light
Our home, which was once as familiar as the back of our hand, is now much farther away than we anticipated.

Fiery mountain beneath the moon
In the distance, we catch a glimpse of a mountain seemingly aglow with firelight against the backdrop of the luminescent moon.

The words unspoken, we'll be there soon
Though the destination is unclear and unexpressed, we will soon reach our goal through sheer determination and resilience.

For home a song that echoes on
In our hearts and minds, there is a familiar tune that represents the comfort and safety of our home.

And all who find us will know the tune
Those who cross our paths will recognize the unspoken connection that binds us to our home and its song.

Some folk we never forget
There are certain individuals that leave an indelible mark on us and remain in our memories forever.

Some kind we never forgive
Conversely, there are others who have wronged us so severely that we cannot bring ourselves to forgive them.

Haven't seen the back of us yet
Our struggles and persistence are not yet over, as we continue to press onward toward our destination.

We'll fight as long as we live
No matter what obstacles we face, we will not give up or back down in our quest for what we desire.

All eyes on the hidden door
Focused on our goal, we intently watch and wait for the opportunity to emerge, hidden behind a secret entrance.

To the Lonely Mountain born
Our journey and ultimate purpose originate at this destination, the top of the Lonely Mountain.

We'll ride in the gathering storm
Despite the impending danger, we bravely and confidently take on the challenges ahead and forge ahead through the tempestuous weather.

Until we get our long forgotten gold
We continue to strive and persevere until we are reunited with what we have been yearning for, our long-lost treasure.

We lay under the Misty Mountains cold
Previously, we were trapped beneath the cold, misty mountains which we are now ascending.

In slumbers deep, and dreams of gold
While we were captive, we dreamt of the treasure that we had lost and awoke with a newfound sense of purpose.

We must awake, our lives to make
It is imperative that we awaken and take action to reclaim what has been taken from us.

And in the darkness a torch we hold
Even in the midst of our darkest hour, we find solace in the light of hope that we carry with us.

From long ago when lanterns burned
We look back to a time when lanterns and torches were used as a beacon of light to guide lost souls to safety.

Until this day our hearts have yearned
Throughout our journey, our hearts have longed for the safety and security of our home that we were forced to abandon.

Her fate unknown, the Arkenstone
The Arkenstone, a powerful and mystical gem, has an uncertain future and its importance is still shrouded in mystery.

What was stolen must be returned
What was unrightfully taken from us must be retrieved and rightfully restored to its rightful owners.

We must awake and make the day
It is up to us to awaken from our slumber and take action to bring light to the darkness.

To find a song for heart and soul
We search for a melody that resonates deeply within us, a song that speaks to our innermost being.

Far away the Misty Mountain's cold.
Our journey will take us far from home, to a place that is unknown and shrouded in mystery and danger.
