Underneath the broken stones
I was hoping for eternity
Here among the dirt and bones
This world could be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
You'll be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
Conquer then I'll wait for you
Getting to know the silent city
'Cause it's time to see the king
You will fear the years ahead of you
See if the torture life can bring
This world could be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
You'll be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
Conquer then I'll wait for you
With lovers hand in hand
Enjoy your time together while you can
I'm takin' you to the silent city
Underneath the broken stones
I was hoping for eternity
Here among the dirt and bones
This world could be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
You'll be my love, love
Conquer then I'll wait for you
Conquer then I'll wait for you, conquer then
Conquer then I'll wait for you, conquer then
Conquer then I'll wait for you
Underneath the broken stones
I was hoping for eternity
