Mourner's Lament (Studio Outtake)

Let me stay here by your side
 Be one with you my precious child
 Let me cover your bed with tears
 I will save you from all fears
 I burn the candles for your soul
 I sing you prayers as the preacher told
 I bring you flowers, I dress in black
 Though I know this cannot give you back
 [Chorus:]
 I sleep by your shadow
 Remembering your light
 In my heart
 I'm with you every night
 Far goes your journey
 Into the unknown
 Wherever you might be
 Be well my son
 Why just you my flesh my blood
 I cannot live nor understand
 My dearest treasure to be found
 Six feet under in sacred ground
 Watch me bleed you lucky ones
 I envy you your living sons
 I'll give mine the strength of my faithful breath
 I will mourn him to my death
