Portals Of Light

(album: Chapters From A Vale Forlorn - 2002)

I sit here by your side and weep you goodbye
I'm singing songs of sorrow for you true gentle rose of mine
Upon my arm I've tied a ribbon in black
Although I know to well that this will not ever bring you back

I feel so astray inside, as I know you're far away
Let my love shine and be your guide
On your way towards the portals of light

A lonely candle burns for you, my only love
Meanwhile you roam the clouds among heavens angels high above
What is there left to live for as you've gone away?
Hope is lost forever more, I'll mourn you until the end of days

I feel so astray inside, as I know you're far away
Let my love shine and be your guide
On your way towards the portals of light

Hear my love, hear my cry of deepest grief
As I weep for you eternally
Praying for your soul, and for light and for relief
As I shed your tears of misery

I feel so astray inside, as I know you're far away
Let my love shine and be your guide
On your way towards the portals of light

I feel so astray inside, as I know you're far away
Let my love shine and be your guide
On your way towards the portals of light
