In Remembrance
XANDRIA · Fire & Ashes 2015 · Track 03 of 07
Music: Dianne van Giersbergen, Joost van den Broek, Marco Heubaum · Lyrics: Dianne van Giersbergen
My child, my fleeting hour has come, There's no mercy for me, no pardon Close my eyes, I know you're overcome and I have failed to guard you
Over mountains, through the meadows, You travelled far from home By the hand of your father I'm left, abandoned, alone
Hear my voice, remember who cradled you Who loved and swore to guide you, through the darkest hours of your life, Return to me, if only tonight
My child, let your kisses console my heart, Revive me with your smile All is gone now, now all is lost Hear me plead for one last goodbye
Over mountains, through the meadows He carried you far from home By his hand, the hand of your father We're left, abandoned, alone
Hear my voice, remember who cradled you Who loved and swore to guide you, through the darkest hours of your live, Return to me, if only tonight
Hear my voice, remember who cradled you Who loved and swore to guide you, through the darkest hours of your live, Return to me, my child Let us reunite
