Letra de Mourner's Lament

[Verse 1]
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, you are my son
[Verse 2]
Why just you, my flesh, my blood?
I cannot live nor understand
My dearest treasures 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
[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
[Interlude]
Rest in peace
[Verse 1]
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, you are my son
