Ghost Love Score

Ghost love Score from Nightwish is beautiful song that relies on the central theme of love an deception. I felt I needed to write my own version of what this song means and hence this post. Feel free to leave your opinion at the end or your own version for that sake.
The first two lines of the song

We used to swim the same moonlight waters
Oceans away from the wakeful day

probably refers to the old times when the relationship was perfect and the second line refers to the fact that those good times were far away from the fateful day when the relationship started to  wane.

My fall will be for you
My love will be in you
If you be the one to cut me
I`ll bleed forever

These lines refer the dedication of lover to his/her love. He's ready to sacrifice anything for his love, as is said in my fall will be for you and if he is hurt by his lover it would be eternally painful and hard to recover from. Breakups leave an everlasting scar is what might be the message intended in the last two lines of the above chorus.

Scent of the sea before the waking of the world
Brings me to thee
Into the blue memory

These lines probably refer to a time frame when the fateful day of the end of the relationship is about to occur. The scent of the sea might refer to the sweet memories of the past where the lover is reunited to his love. Into the blue is probably an indication of diving into an ocean of past memories or a walk down the memory lane in short.

A siren from the deep came to me
Sang my name my longing
Still I write my songs about that dream of mine
Worth everything I may ever be

Siren is a mythological creature featured in Greek epics like the Odyssey in which they lure the sailors to destruction. Here the siren might be a metaphor someone, probably a third person,  who is dangerously seductive and trying to lure the lover out of his relationship.  However the lover is ready to pledge everything he has to cling on to his love, his dream. The last two lines do paint a really beautiful picture in that context.

The Child will be born again
That siren carried him to me
First of them true loves
Singing on the shoulders of an angel
Without care for love 'n loss

This is the part of the song which I'm unsure of. Innocence is something that is characteristic of a child and here child probably refers to how the siren portrays herself as innocent and also tries to show hers is true love. Singing on the shoulders of an angel again refers to how the siren depicts herself as angelic, however she does not have the true intention of love.

Take me
Cure me
Kill me
Bring me home
Every way
Every day
Just another loop in the hangman's noose

Take me, cure me, kill me, bring me home
Every way, every day
I keep on watching us sleep

The lover wants be cured of his feelings for the third person. Feelings of hatred, anger and despair are probably represented in the lines kill me. The last lines  of both stanzas are an indication of the fact that the lover is consciously aware of the impending end in the relationship.

Relive the old sin of Adam and Eve
Of you and me
Forgive the adoring beast

The old sin of Adam and Eve refers to love between the lover and his love. Maybe the relationship was immoral but they took the forbidden fruit anyway. Forgive the adoring beast might be referring to the lover asking for his own relief for some beastly act he might have committed.

Redeem me into childhood
Show me myself without the shell
Like the advent of May
I`ll be there when you say
Time to never hold our love

The innocence of a child is a perpetual theme used in most Nightwish poem and it is used here again. These final lines show that the lover's realisation the fact that the relationship is about to end, there is no coming back as is indicated by the last line. He  however wants his innocence back. He wants his pure self back. The chorus is repeated, here however with the difference that the penultimate line of chorus is replaced from you be the one to cut me to you were the one to cut me, indicating that he is hurt by the ending of the relationship.
