WE WILL MEET THEM AGAIN

I often think
That they’ve merely gone out
Soon they will be coming
Home again

The day is bright
Oh do not worry
They have only gone
For a long walk

Yes they’ve merely gone out
And soon they will be coming
Home again

Oh do not worry
The day is bright
They’ve just taken
A walk to the hills over there

They’ve merely gone
Ahead of us
And will not be coming
Home again

We will meet them
Again on the hills
In the sunshine
The day is bright

We will meet them
Again on the hills
In the sunshine
The day is bright
On the hills over there

ARCTIC DEATH

I breathe in the coolness of frigid air
The iciness sends a shiver through me like a skewer
Icebergs like raw skin gleam in this polar world
This glacial snowlike - a Siberian apparition
I see a frozen mirage - frost clings to the ice yacht gliding over the silent lake

Body useless
Nerves are broken
Fever soaring end is near

Tears are falling
Falling frozen
Heaven calling
Have not fear
Arctic Death

ANGELS CRYING

Through all the laughter
I hear the sobbing
Of the angels
In their grief

I don't know why
They're so sad
What's the reason
For their tears

Through the trees
I hear their cries
The gentle sighing
Of the angels

I don't know why
They're so sad
What's the reason
For their tears

Crying
Crying
Crying
Crying

Through all the laughter
I hear the sobbing and crying
Of the angels
In their grief
