Lyrics Tuomas Holopainen

Tuomas Holopainen

A Lifetime of Adventure

To be rich is to still remember

To treasure your first dime

To have a chance to say farewell

Story of your life

Time of solitude and strife

Freedom of the northern road

Hoping many miles to go

Promises to keep

Countless gold fields to reap

To be rich is to seek

To relive the memory

Far off lands, quests of old

Self respect, true grit

Never care, my fortune, my wife

To seek is to be rich

Story of your life

Time of solitude and strife

Freedom of the northern road

Hoping many miles to go

Promises to keep

Countless gold fields to reap

To be rich is to seek

To relive the memory

All the strangers on your path

Crossroads that lead us from home

The cooling hymn for soulful Yuletide heart

All the songs of wilderness

The truth in which you fall

They're your lost troves, but that\'s what you recall

Story of your life

Time of solitude and strife

Freedom of the northern road

Hoping many miles to go

Promises to keep

Countless gold fields to reap

To be rich is to seek

To relive the memory

Story of your life

Time of solitude and strife

Freedom of the northern road

Hoping many miles to go

Promises to keep

Countless gold fields to reap

To be rich is to seek

To relive the memory
