Kamelot - The light I shine on you (for lyrics see more info)

Kamelot - The light I shine on you
Album: Karma (2001)
Lyrics:
yet a day is dawning
I am sad but also strong
this gift that I've been given
tells me where I do belong
falling I'm falling down
and you recall my strength
time will slowly pull me under
but you will catch my breath

this is a praise to all of you

cause the light I shine on you
is what you gave to me
I'm a crystal clear and true
I'm your cairn and creed

you think that I'm a mountain
but there's a price I have to pay
for the love I have forsaken
can never be replaced

crying I'm crying out
be careful with my soul
unbounded I'm like water
but so fragile in the cold
and this is a praise to all of you

cause the light I shine on you
is what you gave to me
I'm a crystal clear and true
I'm your cairn and creed

the mysteries of life
take us high and low
the road can be long
it seems
someone is lost
but no one is free

falling I'm falling down
into your open arms
each and every gathered glow
maintains my shining star

this is a praise to all of you...

Easily one of Kamelot's best. Though I can see why they don't perform it live.

[Tanelorn1991BGD]

I agree, it's one of my favs, but why are they not playing it live?

[urbium2]

Because the vocal chorus is absurdly difficult! You can tell Khan is maxing himself out here in studio, I can't even believe how difficult it would be to reproduce live.

[Tanelorn1991BGD]

Hmm yeah, i agree, but somehow i think he could pull it off..Lots of other songs have hard vocal parts and i never saw him fail.

[th3rof1copt3r]

I want to make love to this song

[timomit91]

one of the best songs from kamelot....it`s amazing....

[asdfmovie16]

No dislikers that how it should stay a too good song

[royalhunt0603]

@Tanelorn1991BGD Because he can't sing high tone???

[DebbyPowerMetal]

kamelot.... 4 life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! roy! <3

[IvanTsarina]

@Letodude well, I would! I can't live without my metal music!! and Kamelot just rocks it out

[Letodude]

I don't get the whole metal thing. Who would WANT to listen to this willingly?

[flyaway2magicland]

I think he's capable of anything. :)

[FeikZc0]

nice song :3

[XxboVodxX]

@arsenicrain I believe he can sing it live if he gives out his best performance. but not after a full set of course.. in fact his performance only starts to decline during the 1-2 last songs of the show

[kleineamoebe]

I so fell in love with this song... I always thought it sounded quite a lot like a "thank you for being there" to Kamelot Nation, but considering it's from 2001 that would be rather improbable. either way it's one of those I after five years of being a Kamelotian still cannot listen to without starting to cry ;...)

[revive0the0alive]

Flawless Album!
