Swan Christy - Two Episodes (Stratovarius cover, medley)

A medley of two Stratovarius songs, Forever and Tomorrow, both from Episode. This was included on Swan Christy's 1997 demo Farewell To The Flesh. They hailed from Greece, and though they started out as a gothic metal band (according to a few websites anyway) they now play experimental/electronic/alternative. They have also changed their name to A Band Apart. It's actually a really cool cover in the fact that, it doesn't try to emulate Stratovarius's style at all.

Forever lyrics:
I stand alone in the darkness
The winter of my life came so fast
Memories go back to childhood
To days I still recall
Oh how happy I was then
There was no sorrow
There was no pain
Walking through the green fields
Sunshine in my eyes
I'm still there everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the Northern sky
I'll never stay anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
Would you wait for me forever.

Tomorrow lyrics:
I'm staring out the window
wondering will I soon know
the answers to the questions within
where should I begin
I'm delusioned by a clear crystal night
While trying to find some insight
the solution is close at hand yet still so far away

I'll turn the tables 'round and find another way
I'll leave all this behind and move on today

I will take things as they come
look out for number one
and I'll be back tomorrow
Feeling strong and brave inside
my head up high with pride
yes I'll be back tomorrow

I'm facing my nightmares again
determined that I won't bend
now the answers are coming to me
I'm learning how to believe
I know now that this is the way
I've found my red-letter day
I've been there out on a limb
but now I've finally come in

I've turned the tables 'round and found another way
I've left it all behind for a better day

I will take things as they come
look out for number one
and I'll be back tomorrow
Feeling strong and brave inside
my head up high with pride
yes I'll be back tomorrow
