Night Will Forgive Us

(album: Emerald Forest And The Blackbird - 2012)

Did we make it through the night
Or was it just a dream of woe?
When did mother's arms turn to dust?
The fortress so unbroken
But sill your heart was strong
To lead us all through

The gentle morning mist
Still veiling the graves
Breathe it in and watch the sunrise
Time will wait for us in this early hour
Like the ghosts still lingering on the flowers

Time won't heal, it just buries the pain
And slowly changes form
But a bleeding heart is an open one
Alive yet so undone
We carry these wounds until the night forgives us

Loneliness, so hard to bear
When these rooms breathe emptiness
Still your voice is all around me here
Singing me to the blue dream
Through the quiet summer rain

Time won't heal, it just buries the pain
And slowly changes form
But a bleeding heart is an open one
Alive yet so undone
We carry these wounds until the night forgives us

Did we make it through the night
Or was it just a dream of woe?
When did mother's arms turn to dust?
The fortress so unbroken
But sill your heart was strong to lead us all through

The gentle morning mist
Still veiling the graves
Breathe it in and watch the sunrise
Time will wait for us in this early hour

Time won't heal, it just buries the pain
And slowly changes form
But a bleeding heart is an open one
Alive yet so undone
We carry these wounds until the night forgives us
And lets us say a last goodbye
