Although I only accept Nightwish when Tarja Turunen is the lead singer, this song is really amazing and heartfelt. Marco Hietala’s Viking-like voice in this song is truly touching and before I had read the movie’s synopsis and seen the video, I was sure it’s about Romeo and Juliette.
- While Your Lips Are Still Red lyrics
Sweet little words made for silence
Not talk
Young heart for love
Not heartache
Dark hair for catching the wind
Not to veil the sight of a cold worldKiss while your lips are still red
While he’s still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand’s still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawnFirst day of love never comes back
A passionate hour’s never a wasted one
The violin, the poet’s hand,
Every thawing heart plays your theme with careKiss while your lips are still red
While he’s still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand’s still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they’re still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
“While Your Lips Are Still Red” music from Markku Pölönen Film “Lieksa!” by Tuomas Holopainen / Marco Hietala. Music and Lyrics by Tuomas Holopainen, Nightwish’s creator and songwriter.

These are beautiful lyrics. My favorite part of songs are often the words!
