Never-Ending Story lyrics

Armies have conquered

And fallen in the end

Kingdoms have risen

Then buried by sand

The Earth is our mother

She gives and she takes

She puts us to sleep and

In her light we'll awake

We'll all be forgotten

There's no endless fame

But everything we do

Is never in vain

We're part of a story, part of a tale

We're all on this journey

No one is to stay

Where ever it's going

What is the way?

Forests and deserts

Rivers, blue seas

Mountains and valleys

Nothing here stays

While we think we witness

We are part of the scene

This never-ending story

Where will it lead to?

The earth is our mother

She gives and she takes

But she is also a part

A part of the tale

We're part of a story, part of a tale

We're all on this journey

No one is to stay

Where ever it's going

What is the way?

We're part of a story, part of a tale

Sometimes beautiful and sometimes insane

No one remembers how it began.
