I believe in the afterlife We walk the ancient pathways of the sky Through the heavens hallowed halls Cross the epochs and the eons carved in time Our drift through life is mist A smoke filled mirror gone Returned to dust There's a chill in the air tonight As what once was has passed on through And gone Enduring anthems crossing Time and crossing miles Charismatic countenance Upon a distant fading smile I walked for hours and I never felt the rain And through your window Just your shadow will remain Only your shadow remains Ashes to ashes they say Then dust to dust And what was unbroken divides And the answer to this mortality walking on by The circle remains here my friend We guard it with trust And cast what remains to the sea In our wailing we will suffer No last goodbye The empty days go by Fending off the slow decline of fall Raise your head up high And let the sorrow sing into your soul Oh I'm never gonna be the same Echoes of this ghost song fade away Enduring anthems crossing Time and crossing miles Sail on forever sail unto Your rest from trials Sing songs of wisdom sing that Chilling last refrain And through your window Just your shadow will remain Only your shadow remains You chart Your life into A tidy little graph Of where you've been All you've seen But then There suddenly comes a day You reach the end But only to The life you knew
