  • Here in this dark forest where nothing will live
    I see the frozen eyes
    Maybe something can be heard
    Frozen raindrops hanging on the trees
    Here in the dark forest, where angels live and angels sleep
    Here in my heart is raging again, again

    Save me now, save me now
    Save me now, save me now
    Save me from this pain
    Save me now, save me now
    God save me, help me live again, again

    I'll walk into the halls of ice and thorns
    Decaying frozen walls
    I'll blame myself, I was not here
    For this king could have lost his crown
    But still is your heartbeat
    Your breath hangs frozen in the air
    Some poisoned enchantment
    Your beauty, it will not last

    You say, save me now, save me now
    Save me now, save me now
    Save me from this pain
    Save me now, bring me back
    Save me now and help me live again

    The king returned and all was silent
    The body of his frozen queen, tragic
    The acolytes around her, expressions of horror
    Make me whole again, bring back my queen
    Make me whole again and free the ice queen now
    Come back to me, come back to me

    Save me now, save me now
    Save me now, save me now
    Save me from my grave
    Save me now, save me now
    Help me, help me live again

    He kissed her on the lips
    And his tears, they melted stiff unyielding flesh
    As his lips touched her last frozen breath
    A strange light illum in her eyes
    And the shadow of the valley of death

    He kissed her on the lips
    His tears melted the stiff unyielding flesh
    As his lips touched her last frozen breath
    A strange light illum in her eyes

    The shadow of the valley of death approached
    And the king cried, "For I'm damned, what have I done?"
    And the ice queen shrieked as the angel of death appeared
    "Who pays the price?" He laughed

    For love has brought you here
    And love will tear you apart
    For love I brought you here
    And love will tear you apart
    For love has brought you here
    And love will tear you apart
    For love has brought you here
    And love will tear you apart

    I will not take you back
    I will take you back
    Let me take you back Writer/s: Paul Bruce Dickinson, Roger Ramirez
