Story behind the song
This song may remember the style of Lisa Gerrard's Dead Can Dance band. Cause it's dark mooded, it's intellectual and cause Queenie has an amazing vocal talent. When Fabio did write this track was at a point almost stuck with it, so we forwarded the "base" to our friend and talented musician Corrado Rossi, who added his marvelous and expressive piano play. And then again it went to Queenie, who completed it with her magic vocal touch and the high poetry of her lyrics. Yes, we are particularly proud of this song! :-)
Lyrics
AFTERLIFE (lyrics by Queenie) In the dream you found me swimming Rescued from the demon ship From the great beyond Of a second dawn In the dream the scenery changes Can I work my way back home Going back to you To the crystal rooms Fly the angel wings Black like a crow How do you know Recall the ancient kings Lost in the underground What have you found Call the mystery The dreams of flight The cloak of night In the dream the sky is darkening Where you fly beyond the drift Will I find you there By the ancient square In the dream I'm always chasing Something that I cannot find Take your wings and fly when I close my eyes Call the mystery The dreams of flight The cloak of night In the dream I'm always chasing Something that I cannot find Take your wings and fly when I close my eyes
