๐ Lyrics
My love I hail you from a far away place
The words that I lay down are painful to write
And now I'm done, I'll be leaving to a forsaken land
And my life will come to an end
I've marched with my brothers for a long, long time
We carry the hope for those days to come
But still I long the embrace of the one I call mine
That's the only thing I'll miss when I die
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
I see the old days in the ripening fields
The joy to be with you and become as one
But now it's gone
Though I'm sure we will meet again
In this world or the next
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
To be with you, I'd give it all
To grow old with you, I'd give it all
Fate has decided otherwise
My sister of the light
Of the light!
My love I hail you from a faraway place (and remember my face)
Words that I lay down are painful to write (and plead my love)
Now I'm done I'm entering a forsaken land (I won't always be there)
My life will come to an end
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
Now as I stand on the battlefield
My hopes are all going to our only son
He shall be strong and never yield
He is what the future will bring
Now as I stand on the battlefield (Now as I stand)
My hopes are all going to our only son (on the battlefield)
He shall be strong and never yield (he shall be strong)
He is what the future will bring (and never yield)
Now as I stand on the battlefield (Now as I stand)
My hopes are all going to our only son (on the battlefield)
He shall be strong and never yield (he shall be strong)
He is what the future will bring (and never yield)
Now as I stand...
The words that I lay down are painful to write
And now I'm done, I'll be leaving to a forsaken land
And my life will come to an end
I've marched with my brothers for a long, long time
We carry the hope for those days to come
But still I long the embrace of the one I call mine
That's the only thing I'll miss when I die
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
I see the old days in the ripening fields
The joy to be with you and become as one
But now it's gone
Though I'm sure we will meet again
In this world or the next
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
To be with you, I'd give it all
To grow old with you, I'd give it all
Fate has decided otherwise
My sister of the light
Of the light!
My love I hail you from a faraway place (and remember my face)
Words that I lay down are painful to write (and plead my love)
Now I'm done I'm entering a forsaken land (I won't always be there)
My life will come to an end
So far away from this place of mine
So long overdue is a kiss to my love
Feeling her skin under this roof of mine
I wish I had more time
Now as I stand on the battlefield
My hopes are all going to our only son
He shall be strong and never yield
He is what the future will bring
Now as I stand on the battlefield (Now as I stand)
My hopes are all going to our only son (on the battlefield)
He shall be strong and never yield (he shall be strong)
He is what the future will bring (and never yield)
Now as I stand on the battlefield (Now as I stand)
My hopes are all going to our only son (on the battlefield)
He shall be strong and never yield (he shall be strong)
He is what the future will bring (and never yield)
Now as I stand...
