When you have gold, they'll try to tear it from your hands When you make life, they'll take and grind it into sand Armed and prepared for what befalls you The greatest gift that you possess is all that we gave you Do the lanterns lead us on from afar? Do our eyes belie the memory of the friends we've lost? Take comfort, if you believe you'll meet again But until that day, as we mortals may, live to honour them All our hopes and all our love our greatest wishes go with you May you find the place that you were meant to find Hold on to your truth, to serve you well Words conceal - they are deception trust the signs, not empty promises At dusk, set out to unknown lands far beyond your borders Into the heart - the maddened depths until the first rays blind You hold our dreams our toil and our creation Never want and never need, nor thirst nor hunger You've won the right, have you not, to guide and shape what is to follow? Leave impressions for generations yet to be know what you are What you are not and if you leave this place tomorrow Know you have lived a life content and satisfied From Letras Mania
