There's a mountain by the northern sea

High and mighty like an endless tower

A tempting and majestic sight

with a treacherous secret



There's a legend 'bout its mystery

and it speaks about a tremendous power

A creation of the Gods

and a gate to Heaven



[Pre Chorus]

At night you see the light that will invite

the fearless to the summit

Climb and you will find yourself behind

the walls of ancient stone



[Chorus]

Lost souls in the mountain's grave

Not dead or alive, just forgotten

Trapped in the adventurers' cave

All condemned to languish in darkness,

silence and madness

Forever paying the price

in the heart of the mountain



In a dream you saw the land of gold,

as the mountain tempted in a vision

Where the angels spread their wings

there's where you'll find your freedom



To the glorious dream your soul was sold

To find the house of God became your mission

So you left your past behind,

and now you're heading for the sky



[Pre Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Solo Both, Dahl, Nyberg]



By the light at the summit

you are turned to stone



[Chorus]
