Pale Morning Star

[Verse 1] Long is the trail of the day Into the lap of the evening dusk Sweetest the hour of sleep For I am weary of sorrow and pain Into the tender night I now lapse Into the slumber so sound and deep Arching over the ravines of time (Time, time) Bridge into the shrouded land [Chorus] For, for you left before me My, my pale morning star Now, now you walk in undying light And I'm, I'm still chained in this rimed soil [Verse 2] When twilight reaves my senses The heavenly ones will linger here Right here by my feverish side The ghosts of those I loved Gone is the cruelest longing now (Now) Undone this grief of mine [Chorus] For, for you left before me My, my pale morning star Now, now you walk in undying light And I'm, I'm still chained in this rimed soil [Verse 3] And still I can sense you Still I can hear your voice Still I quiver under your touch Celestial shine in your hair Empyreal crown upon your brow Radiance blurs my teary eyes [Bridge] Broken is the sphere of the body As the spirit will ascend [Verse 4] Broken is the sphere of the body As the spirit will ascend Over the infinite boundaries Over the gulches of death [Verse 5] Once you carried me from the night into the sun (Sun) And now I follow your steps into the unseen land Sore are these weary eyes when I pass into the light Blinding the eternal glow after the long path in the dark Wide awake amidst the dream, I stand by your side I tremble before your gleam, my pale morning star [Outro] I stand by your side My pale morning star
