Leland Street Lyrics

French speaker:
Ma seule étoile est morte
Et mon luth constellé
Porte le soleil noir de la Mélancolie
(My only star is dead
And my star-spangled lute
Bears the black sun of Melancholy
- Quote from Gérard de Nerval poems)
This is not how you planned it
Not the life you had in mind
Winding days have spiraled into years
And the past is long resigned

Serenade the shade and shadow
Cry a tune for days gone by
Scream a song for all you lost along the way
And the one you left behind

After all the words unspoken
After all the deeds undone
In the dark, where certainties are few
And your song is still unsung

Celebrate the hour of madness
Ride the wave that turns the tide
Dream a song for all you lost along the way
And the one you'll never find

Is it too late for a new day
Is it too late to cross the line
Is it too late for a new way
Shine down the light
Shine down the light
The future will unfold
(Table turning face the burn of reality)
Ride out your chance
The story still untold
(Twisting tension face the burnd of mortality)
This is your life
The darkest place you'll go
(Table turning face the burn of eternity)
This is your chance
The choice is yours alone
(Sail away to points unknown)

All you have lived
All you have won
All you have learned
All you have loved
All yours to face
All yours to show
All yours to feel
All yours to know
(Swedish Speaker)
Dom säger ibland att det är bättre att ha älskat och förlorat än att aldrig ha älskat men ibland undrar jag om det är sant
(They sometimes say that it is better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all, but sometimes I wonder if that is true)

(Japanese speaker)
(approximation)
人は信実を信じるではなく
信実があればいいと思うことを信じる
Hito wa shinjitsu wo shinjiru dewa naku
Shinjitsu ga areba ii to omou koto wo shinjiru
(People do not believe in a/the truth. They believe that it is good to think that there is a truth)

Celebrate the hour of madness
Ride the wave that turns the tide
Dream a song for all you lost along the way
And the one you'll never find

Is it too late for a new day
Is it too late to cross the line
Is it too late for a new way
Shine down the light
