Björn Schanz : A Shadow From The Attic Lyrics

"A Shadow From The Attic"

There is a castle, built centuries ago

Built on a hill above a small estate

So many years have passed

And many souls have passed away

Because walls can’t tell

Stories will be left untold

Only a few letters could be found

Little history was written down

But something’s there

Inside these wall

Longing for so long


Longing to be heard

Longing to talk about

True love and purity

Family tragedies

The gift of birth

And a last breath of life

Conquer and defense

Defeat and victory

Decay, rebuilt

And something in-between

At the attic

Something’s hidden in the shades

How dramatic

It’s floating through the walls and through the doors

Not to scare but to share some deepful thoughts

At the attic

A ghost is waiting for a little talk

Late at night when they are asleep

It sometimes calls out in their dreams

To share memories

And to bee seen

All these decades in a tower all alone

For centuries unseen - it doesn’t count ’em anymore

At the attic

A ghost is hidden in the shades

How dramatic

It’s floating through the walls and through the doors

Not to scare but to share some deepful thoughts

At the attic

A ghost is longing for a little talk

At the attic

A ghost is waiting for so long
