Crossing Over

It's Christmastime again
The nights have long-drawn in
And I must be dying
My son Joseph is here
Wind whips the windows, we all play our part
Fold me in a memory deep in your heart

My face will start to fade
Only clear in dreams
The echo of my voice
But my blood runs in your vein
Once I was the picture and then I was the frame
Now I'm broken, bereft in all but name

When it's time to take that ride
I'm ready now
Lay me down one last time
I'm crossing over to the other side
I'm crossing over to the other side

It's Christmastime again
I'll stay as long as I can
Life always finds a way
I will be gone, there's always another day
We teach them nothing, they learn from everything we do
Someday in the mirror, they're standing right there too

When it's time to take that ride
I'm ready now
Lay me down one last time

I'm crossing over to the other side
I'm crossing over to the other side
I'm crossing over to the other side
