Nightwish taking the ending bow at Helsinki's Hartwall Areena September 19th 2009 at the last concert of the Dark Passion Play-tour. The outro playing is Nightwish's version of Michael Nyman's The Heart Asks Pleasure First also known as 'The Piano Theme'.

If someone is still unsure, Nightwish DID NOT actually play this song live, it came from a tape when the show was over and they were taking a bow.

This is NOT the full song, the lyrics in brackets aren't heard at all in this video.

The lyrics (guesswork!)

(On the shore of wistful sea
My kindest heart made me believe
The promise I wish it to be

We´ll bear the wait
Years for your heart
Little hideaways for a lonely heart

Cast away) into the sea
The good in me, the child within
The cruelest heart made me forget
In moments I wish it to be

Hold inside my last fire
You will conquer death by dawn
Slave to the toil, this mortal coil
Risked by the siren that voyage

We'll bear the wait
Years for your heart
An end for winter morn
Calling us, the sirens of the dark

Frozen moments in time
Little hideaways, the prayer (???) of life
Little hideaways for a lonely heart

We'll bear the wait
Years for your heart
Little hideaways for a lonely heart

Silent night surrounding me
On the shore a voice so sweet
My kindest heart made me believe
The promise I wish it to be

  • The webmaster of NIghtwish wrote in a Facebook that they can bublish this song !!!!! I`m not kidding.

  • I hope to find this record on their forthcoming album. Or at least as a b-side on one of their singles.

    Where did you hear this? Link please.

  • @Susitar Someone I know was at the concert and said that Nightwish had been seen outside on the way to their hotel, so a lot of people ran out to follow them there.

    (My guess is, maybe playing The Heart Asks Pleasure First was even a strategy to try and keep people in the hall so the band could leave.. didn't work out that well then. xD)
