Your hands are coarse, your skin so pale The body aches, but your soul will not fail Don’t resist your welcomed on The hardest thing is the one you count on
Light a way just to lead the past You stand between and sheltered you Time will take just to show that There’s nothing more to take from me
No merry song will fade from your kiss The mind keeps its count, but still it’s measured in this And don’t let in what dulls the heart The more you wage, the further we part
Wake from your sleep, just you know that I still remain and shelter you Time stands so still just you feel the grip And cast your will, your warning sign
Time, it will take Love, it will fade
Touch still remains And keeps you warm
Your foolish gift, your withered love The band played on, but still your song was unsung What proof is gained at temptations cost The more you gave, just rips your soul’s light apart
Wake from this sleep, just you hear the words You spoke to me, I’ll sing to you Time stands too lose just to feel your reach And lift your eyes, your warning sign
