As your soul drifts on the plate

To the floor where she is standing

Rising by the fire

From the torch you were burning

Many years but many tears

And many more will soon be arriving

But i drink this final drop

To enter your front door



Gone are the days 

When I poured from the rain

Where once once marched a man 

Going down life's drain

Oh in time in time you will see 

Just what you mean to me

For I have met an angel clip my wings



Come back young volunteer

For your war now it is over

Lay down your blackened gun

Not another bad word spoken

Come tell of all you've seen

To the soul you're no longer killing

And rest your weary voice

The last battle song has cried



Gone are the days 

When I poured from the rain

Where once once marched a man 

Going down life's drain

Oh in time in time you will see 

Just what you mean to me

For I have met an angel clip my wings

Oh an angel clipped my wings 

From the back of a broken dream

So they'll probably never break my fall again

For i return to sing this tune 

From the back of a broken dream



Time wont hurry back

Time wont stall

Time to forget the past

Brush the cobwebs from the wall



Oh for I survived to sing this tune 

From the back of a broken dream

For an angel clipped my wings 

From the back of a broken dream

So they'll probably never break my fall again

For i return to sing this tune 

From the back of a broken dream



For i return to sing this tune 

From the back of a broken dream
