Grave Sweet Grave

I have seen my funeral in a thousand dreams
Its beauty
Now the night descends
And drowns me in this dream once again
No stars tonight… they all have ceased
No moon tonight to cast its gleam
Just a single flame lighting my journey
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
Endless sleep… giving me peace
And eternally bringing release
Nothing more to be done
Nothing more to be lived for me
All my life I've waited for this eternal night
And now it's time
Soon they'll lower me down deep into the icy ground
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
And once there'll be a time that I have waited for
When the dawn will steal my dreams no more
Two at my feet, and two at my head
Two carrying me at where my hands are laid
Grave Sweet Grave - welcoming me home
Grave Sweet Grave - I'll be yours till the dawn
