Amorphis - Weeper On The Shore Lyrics






In the vale where I once listened out for the light
Where the little birds warble
The ptarmigans babble
And my heart looked for some rest from its trouble

I cast my eyes downward upon the seaside
And a fair young girl on the shore I espied
Who was sitting and weeping
To see the waves leaping
And over the skyline sad vigil was keeping.

O why are you weeping alone on the shore?
Now still from your eyes I can see the tears pour.
What sorrow and smart
So pierces your heart
That even at midnight it will not depart?

    *passionately

  7. i.... ....

    This album is a perfect combination of metal and progressive rock. What Amorphis did before was immature and what it did after was boring sellout stuff. That's only my opinion, of course, but this is one of my favorite albums of all time and I can only talk about it passionetly.

    i.... ....

    I loved the Tales Of a Thousand Lakes album as well but you are right
    they peaked with this album

    i.... ....

    Agree with you iamthebeezlebub

    i.... ....

    far from the sun is good too

  8. L.... G....

    perfect song!

  9. R.... ....

    Elegy and Tuonela for sure...........but silent waters is great

  10. f.... ....

    100%agree

  11. M.... P....

    Tales from the Thousand Lakes is amazing too. Elegy and Tuonela saw a change in Amorphis, away from the first 3 cd's.

  12. u.... ....

    I agree with you there... this was the first Amorphis album I bought back when it came out... looooved it and searched out their earlier stuff 'thousand lakes' and 'karelian isthmus' and 'elegy' is definately MUCH lighter musically then the earlier 2, and then tuonela came out, and that one is even lighter... but for some reason i just can't say better or worse... theyre one of those bands that grow with their listeners it seems, at least it seems that way to me... all of their music is awesome

  13. M.... O....

    You never hear lyrics like this anywhere. Great song.

  14. M.... O....

    HELL YEA

  15. R.... K....

    LOVE this song
