Hover

Fly away, fly away to the warmth of the Summerlands
Bid farewell to this deep well of night and its brutal plans
Travel safe, travel safe in the arms of the whispering wind
Lay your pain in the bed of the earth with your little sins

Come and stay, come and stay by my side when the cold moves in
Nights are long, nights are long and my mind's prone to wandering
With you gone so long I've been clenched up and reticent
But you're fixed in my mind, and the memory's good kindling

Hover here a while in the space in between
Let me keep your smile, time can be so damn mean
Memory is cruel, but it keeps you with me
Living on's like fuel, keeps the past burning clean

Crying out, crying out to a god who stays silent
Placing roses on polished reminders in granite
Clasping hands around dining room tables for knocks in the dark
Squinting our eyes to see life after death leave a mark

Hover here a while in the space in between
Let me keep your smile, time can be so damn mean
Memory is cruel, but it keeps you with me
Living on's like fuel, keeps the past burning clean

Maybe all of my time here on Earth's just a drop in the sea
But I'd give all of the gold that I have to know you're still with me
Maybe all of things are just tales to sleep better at night
But remembering seems to be what keeps us all alive

Hover here a while in the space in between
Let me keep your smile, time can be so damn mean
Memory is cruel, but it keeps you with me
Living on's like fuel, keeps the past burning clean

Memory is cruel, but it keeps you with me
Living on's like fuel, keeps the past burning clean
