    Lyrics:
    The sun is sleeping quietly
    Once upon a century
    Wistful oceans calm and red
    Ardent caresses laid to rest
    For my dreams I hold my life
    For wishes I behold my night
    The truth at the end of time
    Losing faith makes a crime
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you
    Sorrow has a human heart
    From my god it will depart
    I'd sail before a thousand moons
    Never finding where to go
    Two hundred twenty-two days of light
    Will be desired by a night
    A moment for the poet's play
    Until there's nothing left to say
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you

When I hear this song, I want to cry because the last thing we could do for him was to pick his favorite songs, including this one, and let them play at his funeral. The cancer he had once defeated has returned, and unfortunatelly he lost his fight. He died when I was child but I will love him forever and he will never be forgotten.

I still listen to Tarja and Nigthwish today. I'm just very sorry I didn't have time to visit their concert with Tarja and Marko Hietala. I am 73 years old and in December I was at the Nigtwish concert in Prague. At least I got my wish that way.

      2007 for me. It was used by a fan in an Anime Music Video over scenes of sad character deaths -- couldn't care about most of them, but the song utterly captivated me. And the video got deleted so I was looking for so long for it, then I got the song recommended to me randomly two years later. And I didn't have the song's name or even the people who made it. I was looking with utterly nothing.
      'Wait,' I said to myself when I saw the track listed. 'Sleeping Sun... Why does that stick out to me?' And I listened to it and I was immediately gasping with shock because it was _that_ song. And I immediately started listening to Elvenpath and Ever Dream and the covers of Phantom Of The Opera and Walking In The Air.
      Tarja was already gone by that point - it was around the release of Imaginaerum. But I discovered a great band thanks to this song.

    This song was written for the August 11 solar eclipse in 1999. I still remember the strange darkness and chill setting in the middle of a sunny day. And six days later, right on Tarja's birthday, we had the biggest earthquake in our history (until then, unfortunately we had a bigger one last month) and our lives have never been the same again. This song means so much to me.

      wait wut? since when is this a cover? as far as I know, Tuomas Holopainen wrote it in 1999 for the solar eclipse in that year. Sure, they rereleased it in 2005 (with a medieval battle as background in the video), but I never heard that this version here is a cover Oo
      Would you care to explain?
      Ok, it WAS covered later, but not by Nightwish

    Lyric here:
    The sun is sleeping quietly
    Once upon a century
    Wistful oceans calm and red
    Ardent caresses laid to rest
    For my dreams I hold my life
    For wishes I behold my night
    The truth at the end of time
    Losing faith makes a crime
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you
    Sorrow has a human heart
    From my god it will depart
    I'd sail before a thousand moons
    Never finding where to go
    Two hundred twenty-two days of light
    Will be desired by a night
    A moment for the poet's play
    Until there's nothing left to say
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you
    I wish for this night-time
    To last for a lifetime
    The darkness around me
    Shores of a solar sea
    Oh how I wish to go down with the sun
    Sleeping
    Weeping
    With you
