Soon

Hands of wisdom
How they tremble
Drink from the sweet cup
It’s bitter still

All this heartache
Poison water
A little bit longer
A little bit more

Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last

Close up all the doors
Bring the music low
Break the silver cord
Turning back to dust

Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last

Night is falling
For this stranger
Sparks fly upward
Then disappear

Soon
Clouds appear and lights go dim
All will pass
Home at last
