Grandmother's Tears

Bring the light!
I have to shatter my illusions
Of the dawn
And bring the fire!
It's time we scattered all the ashes
To the ground
And bring me down
To the one we have forgotten
Yet are bound

Bound by our glory
Bound by our fears
Bound by the simple taste
Of countless tears

And bring the wild!
The wind is tearing through
The blackness of the sky
And hold me, child
In bitter rain
I'll be your shelter
Through the night
And close your eyes
Though the sand and shadows rage
We look inside

For Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

And bring the light!
And bring the fire!
And bring the wild
And hold me, child

For we have fallen
To the ground
Into the quiet space
Between all sound
And love has bidden
Us to call
Upon her gentle grace
That heals all

And bring the light!
And bring the fire!
And bring the wild
And hold me, child

For Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten

Grandmother's tears
They have fallen
Four thousand years
Almost forgotten
Almost forgotten
All but forgotten
