Meanwhile the night is taking
Over the thoughts i had,
I don’t know where i was heading
But i know i’m there again,
And it sets me free
Overwhelming all the sadness
That i feel.
And i know this great big garden
For the dearly departed,
Where we’ve cried and spoken
Love is all we need within this token.
You have seen
All the places of my dreams
And it overwhelms the sadness that i feel.
I’ve got this sinking feeling that it won’t be too long
Before we meet within this house that aches and creaks inside my soul
And i know you tried,
And it makes me feel alive,
Overwhelming all the sadness that i feel.
Lost in the haze of yesterdays,
I don’t want to go that way.
And i know someday we’ll meet
And those are the words that you’ll say
I know this great big garden
For the dearly departed,
Where we’ve cried and spoken
Love is all we need within this token.
You have been
There for me until the end
And it overwhelms the sadness that i feel.
