Sonata Arctica - Letter To Dana (Live) LYRICS

[French bonus track]

[Tony Kakko]



Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you.

Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day

And I don't want to bother You anymore,

I used to hope you'd come back

But not anymore Dana.



My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen

Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine

And I think my heart just cannot handle that

Dana, my darling, would be so bad.



Dana my darling I'm writing to you

Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day

And I didn't mean to bother you anymore

Your mother wished: Come visit your faters grave, Dana



Your father disowned you because you have sinned

But he did forgive you in condition he was in

And I you won't do those things anymore

Dana My darling I'm waiting for



Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,

How I wish that my Dana was here

Little Dana O'Hara decided one day

to travel away, faraway



No, you can't surprise me anymore

I have seen it all before

But it seems I cannot let you go

Anyhow, Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana



And I think that I told you, I'd wait for you forever

Now I know someone else's holding you,

so, for the first time in my life - I must lie

Lie's a sin, mess that I am in,

Love is not the thing I feel know

I promise you: I won't write again 'til the sun sets

behind your grave



Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you, I heard you passed

away it was a beautiful day

I'm old and I feel time will come for me, my diarys

pages are full of thee



Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,

How I wish that my Dana was here

Little Dana O'Hara decided one day

to travel away, faraway
