The third track off of Nightwish’s third album.
From a track-by-track explanation from the official website, Tuomas stated that the song is a “simple love song.” He said:
A rather simple love song. The feeling of waiting is often more fulfilling than the happening itself.
Come wet a widow's eye
Cover the night with your love
Dry the rain from my beaten face
Drink the wine the red sweet taste of mine
Come cover me with you
For the thrill
Till you will take me in
Come comfort me in you
Young love must
Live twice only for us
For me
For you
Time devours passion's beauty
With me
With you
In war for the love of you
For me
For you
Time devours passion's beauty
With me
With you
Tonight any dream will do
Not a world but your fine grace
Seduction in sleepwalker's land
November dressed in May on your face
Holding us now the lovecropper's hand
Come cover me with you
Come cover, come cover me now
Come cover me with you
For the thrill
Till you will take me in
Come comfort me in you
Young love must
Live twice only for us
Come cover me with you
Come cover, come cover me now
