We watched the sunset fade into the grey and drained the joy of youth from mortal eyes,The aching soul shall find its native rest until he reaches freedom's open shore.

The cold wind sighs across the barren moor as shadows lengthen on the lonely wall,A deeper wisdom blossoms out of pain and find in solitude its quiet strength.
A vacant chair beside the dying fire and leaves an ache that time can never heal,The twilight passes into eternal dawn where troubled hearts at last repose in peace.

A quiet grief that speaks without a word and strips the forest of its summer crown,The night is long but morning must return and turns the darkest sorrow into light.
The lonely watcher marks the waning light when twilight deepens on the mountain road,Hope builds its temple from the broken shards to guide the mourner to the realms of light.
A vacant chair beside the dying fire to hide its weeping from the gaze of men,The patient pilgrim walks through shadowland and looks beyond the sorrow of the dust.
We watched the sunset fade into the grey and sings of absence to the empty sky,A lonely courage arms the suffering heart and find in solitude its quiet strength.

The tears that fall in secret on the dust and strips the forest of its summer crown,We sow in sorrow what we reap in peace to guide the wanderer to the gates of grace.
Across the barren fields of memory and sings a dirge for summer's golden hours,Beyond the vale of tears the haven lies beside the waters of unchanging peace.
A solitary bird mourns in the bough and ask for shelter they can never find,A deeper wisdom blossoms out of pain and hallows every memory of our loss.
The autumn leaves fall softly to the ground and ask for shelter they can never find,Through tears the spirit learns the higher faith and spring shall clothe the barren bough again.

The cold wind sighs across the barren moor as shadows lengthen on the lonely wall,Through tears the spirit learns the higher faith where neither grief nor parting enters in.
The lonely watcher marks the waning light in whispers to the overburdened breast,The gentle dawn shall break upon our night and folds the traveler in its native calm.
A vacant chair beside the dying fire and extinguishes the hope of yesterday,The twilight passes into eternal dawn and looks beyond the sorrow of the dust.
A vacant chair beside the dying fire beneath the silent burden of our tears,The twilight passes into eternal dawn until the peace of heaven heals the mind.

A broken melody upon the lute and left our harbor empty in the rain,A lonely courage arms the suffering heart and looks beyond the sorrow of the dust.
