Abandoned Lyrics by Kamelot

The Black Halo

2015

[Verse 1: Roy Khan]
Once my life was plain and clear, I recall
Once my ignorance was bliss
Nightfall came like a serpent's kiss
To my troubled mind

[Chorus: Roy Khan]
Why, oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide

[Verse 2: Roy Khan]
Binding promises were made on my soul
Grand illusions lead astray
Ice cold winds swept my heart away
Bring me back to you

[Chorus: Roy Khan]
Why, oh why my God
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide

[Bridge: Mari Youngblood]
(Helena) I remember a song
Like in a dream
Where September was long
And winter unreal

[Chorus: Roy Khan]
Why, oh why my God above
Have you abandoned me
In my sobriety
Behind the old facade
I'm your bewildered child
So take me cross the river wide
