Long was the time, long, long was the time again

Long was the time, long, long was the time again



Long was the time when they say the phoenix was calling

Even through the city and the rain I could hear she was falling

Found her in the coldest light of that early morning

I could see those cuts and bruises only told a little bit of the story



Can you see the history now?

Looked up like a secret in her father's house

Very military was his rationale

And he was the worst of the demons



Well, she went up and down

Dug herself deep into the underground

Looking for the sugar and the candy now

So she gave away all the feelings



The only problem was the phoenix did not care, no

She let me burn by her side 'cause she never ever cared

Oh woah, oh woah, my lady phoenix

Oh woah, oh woah



Long was the time, long, long was the time again

Long was the time, long, long was the time again



Lost myself on why you could never take advantage twice

She will always catch you in her vice when everything crashes

This is a warning for you, you should never test her anger

You could lose all you have in this world, yeah



Well, she'll go harder now

Dig herself deeper in the underground

Looking to replace her angry daddy now

'Cause that's just what burns at this phoenix



Oh woah, oh woah, my lady phoenix

Oh woah, oh woah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



This is just a warning

The only problem was the phoenix wasn't there

How could I tell with all the blood and the flames

You shouldn't tempt her if your loving wasn't there

She'll always rise from the ashes once again, once again, yeah



Oh woah, oh woah, my lady phoenix

Oh woah, oh woah



Long was the time, long, long was the time again

Long was the time, long, long was the time again
