Winter after she had left us
I'd stand a darkened blur
Going through the relics from a
Life I shared with her
It wasn't long before I came to
Her antique dresser drawer
I fell upon a note inside it
From the year before
I can see that this may be the only chance
You will ever know
To guide your soul
Gently home
So cradle me in your arms
And whisper me one last song
As heaven falls
For a moment there was silence
I dare not take a breath
How could I have been so selfish
My wife embracing death
Summer after she had left us
Fell to a darkened blur
Gripping tight a razor blade as
I cried my last to her
I can see that this may be the only chance
You will ever know
To guid your lover's soul
Gently home
So cradle me in your arms
And whisper me one last song
As heaven falls.
