When my time has come and gone
And my life, laid out to pasture
Crown my fears for all I've done
As I wait for my aching hour
Because I feel that it wont be long
Until the dawn brings the dark angel
Am I wrong to want to hold on?
Precious one, I'll wait by the window
Then all becomes clear to me
When I'm gone
Will I be justified?
For all I know
I'll disappear into the light
And love everyone
Pour the wine
Heal my troubled mind
With every word that echoes in the distance
All the while, I'll dream of her smile
She can lift the world up to the heavens
And I can hear the siren call
A beautiful star shines soft against her
Could she reveal the fate of my soul?
And if all that we are is lost in a whisper
Then all becomes clear to me
When I'm gone
Will I be justified?
For all I know
I'll disappear into the light
And love everyone
But it's only a matter of time
Until we find what's behind the door
But I believe
After I'm gone
My spirit will carry on
